Teacher Thank You Gifts



I created some fun, useful gifts for my childrens teachers this year. Thanks Deb for this neat idea!

Here are the steps:

1. Stamp and color small images (in this case the Apples from 'First Days' .

2. Punch them out using the 1/2" circle punch.

3. Cover the flat bottom of some clear glass beads with crystal effects glue and then pressed the stamped image onto it facing up

4. Glue (using Tombow Adhesive) the bead to various stationary items- in this case I did large paperclips, magnets, pushpins (on a piece of foam) and clips. For the clips, I sandwiches the pins between the bead and a second 1/2" punchout to make it more secure.

The second version uses a Bubble Bee incentive stamp from some time ago- I have no name with it (sorry) , but I though it'd be cute!


I'm going to package these items up in a clear cellophane bag and add a big shot Top Note Topper that my kids will decorate for their teachers!

Enjoy!
Tania
