This week at my daughter's school it is Teacher Appreciation Week. She is in the 4th grade and I know how her teacher likes to send notecards and can always use notepads. So I made her a few cute items (band-aid holder, 3 x 3 notecards in box, gum holder, tic tac holder and covered her a 3 x 5 pastel scratch pad. Here is a picture of them:
They all turned out so cute and I cased the gum holder and tic tac holder from Rochelle and I can't remember where I got the cute little box from. Here are the directions for it. Start with a 7.5 x 5.5 piece of cardstock. Score it 1" in parallel to the long sides and 3" in parallel to the short sides. I cut the short scored lines and used the sticky strip to hold the sides together. I added ribbon for the handles and cover the sides with printed paper.
The cute band-aid box I ordered was from EB Creations and used the same paper and design to cover it. Once I measure it, I ran it through my sticker maker making it easier to glue to the container. Sorry I don't have the measurements. I still have a couple to make and I'll try to get the measurements then. I used red grossgrain ribbon on the top and bottom to cover some of my rough edges.
Supplies: Stampin Up Scallop, 1 3/8", 1 1/4" punch, Real Red, Garden Green, Pumpkin Pie Cardstock, Summer Picnic Scrapbook Paper, White Ribbon (Not SU), Red Grosgrain Ribbon, Black & Garden Green Stamp Pad, Real Red Marker.
Stamp Sets: Tart & Tangy, Year Round Cheer (Retired), and Very Punny (Retired)
This is only my second post and I'm still learning how to format and get things where I want them. If you have any advice, please e-mail me. Thanks!
