Teachers Christmas

 

This is a catch up post on some things I have been making.  I make

cards and gift tags for the grand kids teachers.   This year 8 were needed

as their preschool has a lot of fabulous teachers.  No two are alike. The penguin

tags are made from an old Angel Company set Perky Penguins, the

scarfs are paper pieced and fussy cut, and glitter glue on the scarf and pom pom.

 I have posted one of the hot cocoa

prior but I changed up the pattern for these, such a great stamp set

by Momenta that I got on clearance a couple years ago.  I hope you

are enjoying your Christmas crafting as much as I am!

Thinking of you

 

I had several backgrounds similar to this one and decided to use them.  The 

turtles were already colored  (except the flower) and the sentiments in my sentiment 

binder.  I embossed the background, die cut the circles and the

green piece behind the sentiment and was ready to assemble.  My snippets

were, the white for the sentiment and behind the turtle, and the

embossed background as it had been around for

quite while.  It'salways nice to have a few any occasion card to send out.

 Playing around with Christmas cards for the grand kids teachers, this is one of my

cards today.  I used up a lot of snippets for this one and a die cut set that

has been in my stash for awhile from Momenta that I got on

clearance at Hobby Lobby years ago.   My one granddaughter likes

to make cards when she comes over and my grandson played at my

table with me on their last visit. So much fun!
