Teacher Gift

Hello there, I'm so glad you came to visit, I know I've been pretty remiss about posting for the last month - first I was really sick and then I had to get ready for a big craft fair last Saturday.  I'm pleased to say, I survived the craft fair, the next one isn't for a month and I intend to resume posting at least 2 -3 times a month - promise!

As far as I am concerned every day should be teacher appreciation day, and I'm pleased to say that when I took these post-it note holders to the craft fair on Saturday, so many people bought them for friends and neighbors as a 'just because' gift.

I started with a 3 1/4" x 6 3/4" piece of cherry polka dot and scored it 3 1/4" from each end, the post it pad is attached to the base and then the holder tied together with cherry grosgrain stitched ribbon.

I stamped the bus and the sentiment onto a 2 1/2" square sugar scrap and coloured with Copics, I then stamped the ruler onto a scrap of  burano, I cut it out and trimmed to size.  The centre panel is mounted onto a 2 3/4" square of cobalt and the whole thing attached to the base with puffy tape with puffy tape.

Come back tomorrow to see the matching calendar!
