Teacher Chalkboard Cards

Good Morning! This time next week I will be preparing to take Evan on his last ever school run to Primary School!! Eeekkkkk, it's gone by so quickly! I remember being upset when his brother Ross left and thought to myself, it's OK as Evan has another 4 years left! Well they have gone by, just like that! At this time of year we look to make a little thank you card for the teachers and I have made some of this design based on one of my all time favourite swaps from Angie in our team, such a talented girl! This is not my own design! You can find her blog post HERE with instructions for the card in both inches and cm! 

 I took orders for these little cards to go towards my son's Kenya Fund and had 6 to make this week. I managed to get 6 done in an hour, was a little production line! 
 The buttons are retired but everything else is current product and I just love the Chalk Marker which is perfect for these cards! Here are a few of the ones I made for the orders. I really hope the teachers receiving these are pleased with their special little cards.
Do I get an A+ for making them????

More Envelope Punch Board projects

Good Morning! Was a very exciting evening last night as we visited Evan's high school for a meeting to go through things for when he starts in September. He only has another 4 and a bit weeks left at primary school so it's quite the adventure. Also it's the end of an era for me but I am looking on the positive side of it rather than being sad about how quickly the boys have grown up! When I started this blog Evan was only 4 years old and now he is starting High School - crazy! For me, well I am ready to not have to do the school run anymore after doing it for 11 years although I will miss seeing some of my friends every day!

Onto todays makes for you! I am sharing the last 3 projects from the Envelope Board class. This first one is made like a standard envelope but is make into a card inside with a belly band to hold it closed.
I used the Flower Shop stamp set together with the Million and One stamp set for the wording inside.
We then made this really cute little box from one piece of 6x6 designer paper, the bow was also made with the Envelope punch board too.
And finally this really quick treat holder, perfect for one of those mini Green and Black chocolate bars.
Here are all the projects together. I loved running this little bespoke class for my 4 ladies. If you can gather 4 ladies together then I am happy for you to come to a class in my home or I can come to you.
