S'more teachers.

Monday kicks off teacher appreciation week at my son's school. This is our first gift to his teacher. A friend of mine found this idea and I asked if I could also use, it was too darn cute to pass up. I used a tag from TBBM and then used my gypsy to get it to the size I wanted (sorry I don't have exact size I already deleted the file). For the saying I ran the tag through my printer so everything would look crisp. The adorable bird is from 3 Birds on Parade and he was cut at just under 2.5in. I inked him up a bit and added stickles to the marshmallow and then some faux stitching around the hat and tag. I placed my bird on pop dots for added dimension and my tag was complete. We put everything the teacher will need to make s'mores into some pretty gift wrap and then tied the tag on. Stay tuned for more projects all week!

Christmas cards!!

 I used 3 Birds on Parade for this one. The bird was cut at 3.25". I used stickles on the lights and some left over scrap ribbon. The paper comes from a stack called Harvest and Holiday. The stamp is from Technique Tuesday. I also put the wings of the bird through the Cuttlebug using the Swiss Dots folder.

 Another bird from the smae cart, this has to be one of my favorite cartridges! I used the sme paper oack for this card. I just cut a strip of the presents out to use as a border. The bird was cut at 3.24" using my Gypsy. I stickled the white on the hat. I can't remember where the stamp came from but I believe it was Inkadoo.

 I used the Christmas Cartridge on this one. I finally recieved my Gypsy back from PC they had it for 3 weeks! This cart was one of the free uploads. The tree was cut at 4.53" and I hen added different colored stickles to it so it would look like it had ornaments. The white backround paper was cut to look like it has little hills and then run through the Cuttlebug for a swirly snow effect. The blue paper was also put through the cuttlebug and I don't recall the name of the folder. I then added some glitter and liquid pearl to both the white and blue paper.

For the last card I used Christmas Cheer for the snow globe and Christmas Cards for the snowman. The globe was cut at 3.25" and the snowman I think was at 6". I added stickles to the snowman and snowglobe. The green backround paper was run through the Cuttle bug and I added some ribbon I picked up from Ben Franklins.
