With the end of the school fear fast approaching (thank goodness! LOL), I have a lot of friends looking for ideas for teacher appreciation gifts. I thought this would be a cute way to dress up a gift card.
I simply wrapped the card in paper and tied the ribbon around it. Easy peasy.
I will admit, though, that my favorite things from students have always been thoughtful notes. I fact, I even got one last week from a former student - that was a big surprise and so sweet. Makes all the long days and hard work worth it :)
Card Recipe: Stamps: solid apple and for a special teacher by A Muse. Paper: cranberry, green, and grass petite gingham by A Muse ink: A Muse black dye ink, Colorbox magenta Other: black polka dot sheer ribbon by A Muse, pink colored pencil (I didn't ink the middle left side of the stamp so I would have that white space, and just went over the edges with a little pink colored pencil).
This is so bright and cheerful. Love the colours and the 'shine' on your apple. So creative! Great idea.
