Schools Out


My little boy finished school this week and that got me thinking how many of the same cards the teachers get at the end of term.



This card is great and what is more the children can help.

Using one of the 'stars' sheet from the Tim Coffey 6x6 school pad ttp://http://www.telfordsdirect.co.uk/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=37&products_id=625 trim to fit one of our large square cards. I used a cream card. There is a great sheet in Tim's pad which has books, pencils rulers etc. By using your decoupage skills, carefully cut out the books, globe, crayon and apple and place them on the front of the card using foam pads. Highlight the words on the books with Sakura pens ttp://http://www.telfordsdirect.co.uk/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=24&products_id=741 when you apply them first you will think that nothing is going to happen and that you have wasted your time but wait until they have dried and you will see how it works. Add a 'thank you' peel off to the apple.

I am sure that 'teacher' will be delighted with her card.

See you soon

Hi Sheonagh, what a cute card & personally I think all the kids in the class should be making their teacher a card.

Well done on the new look website & blog.
