This was outside our front door - Amber refused to go out on the lawn because of the sun (she squints lots and is sensitive to the sun)
Amber was getting annoyed at the sun by now, so this isn't her best smile - but still cute enough for me!
This is the gift I made (we had no idea what teacher we would get so I couldn't add a name) There is 2 boxes of Smarties (because that's what she's teaching), 1 Time Out bar (she'll need a time out by the end of the day), 1 pen (it has 4 colours in it), some chalk and a post-it note book that I made.
This is the box that I created - it was inspired by a fries box. There is green Bazzill on the inside. I punched out a star at the top and doodled around the edges. I created the note paper on the front using lined pp and then punched the holes with my threading water punch (I just trimmed off the scallops). The apple is made from Bazzill and pp then adheared with 3D foam tape. I made a cover for the post-it note pad from green Bazzill, added ribbon and a chipboard sticker. I also doodled around the edge of this too.
I can't wait to hear what Amber got up to for the day - she's supposed to have a new playground this year. Will keep you all posted...
