They say it is better to give than to receive and I surely enjoying giving. I hope I don't get any looks from other moms tomorrow as I may have gone overboard here - but I really do enjoy making extra special gifts and our son's teacher is amazing! (Aren't they all??)
Plus, if you take away the 3 ginormous bags of chex mix, this would all fit in a smaller bag and it wouldn't look as big! (Sorry.. feel like I need to defend this awesome gift!)
One of the many things I love about Stampin' Up! is the products that make gift giving so fun. The ribbon, stamp sets, tags.. It not only makes it pretty, it makes it easy!
Our son's teacher told me earlier in the year that she loves all kinds of chex mixes, so I decided to make 3 different kinds. These will be great snacks for road trips, camping or poolside. I decided to make little tags with the Pick a Pennant stamp set. This is a great small alphabet for little labels. (I even thought some of the other stamps in the set looked like chex, so I made little banners with them as well.
Tucked in the side of the basket are two 8 packs of thank you/note cards. These were made with the Share What You Love Specialty Designer Series Paper, the Artisan Textures stamp set, Thankful Thoughts stamp set, Wood Words stamp set and some Berry Burst Ribbon. I made an assembly line and this came together while I watched a movie with my kids. Win, win!
In the back of the basket is my favorite gift that I made. I had an extra canvas and hoop in my craft stash that someone gave me once so this craft technically cost me nothing! #thisiswhyIhoard
The stamp set is called Lined Alphabet and is a must have in your stamp collection. I have seen so many great cards made with this. A nice versatile set.
I stamped the letters in Memento Black Ink and colored them with my Blends.
I tried not to blend them too much to give the letters a watercolored look.
I dressed the hoop up with coordinating ribbon! I love that Stampin' Up! is matchy-matchy. It makes my heart happy!
I am so excited to give this to our son's teacher. Teachers are such amazing people and they give so many hours and dedication for our children. We are blessed...
I hope you have a great weekend! School is out tomorrow! Woohoo!
Blessings,
Holly
