So this year, I decided to make all of Morgan's teachers gifts. She's in the fifth grade and she has several teachers. When I was in the fifth grade I had my classroom teacher, music teacher and PE teacher. She has those three plus a computer lab teacher, title 1 reading teacher, math teacher and probably a para or two that I am forgetting about. Are kids just more misbehaved these days that there needs to be that many people watching over them or is this turning out more educated children? I have yet to figure that out. I guess it is a good thing because they all seem to love the kids and that's what's important. I came up with these card books thinking I was going to use up a lot of paper that I have but in reality, it really only used up three pieces of cards tock and three pieces of coordinating patterned paper. Needless to say, I did not make a dent or even a dimple in my enormous stash of patterned paper. I used the Wishblade and created the A2 sized envelope to cut out. Most of the rest was done by hand. It is a variety of cards such as Happy Birthday, Get Well Soon, Thinking of You, Congrats and a few blank ones for a total of eight cards. Off to mass produce these for the army of educators!
Keep Smiling! =)
These are great! Any chance you have instructions for the card book?
