My son has had the best teachers this year, and I wanted to give each of them something to show our appreciation. I pulled out the My Creative Time Embossed Gift Card Holder Die and got busy. For the sentiment going across the top of each one, I used MCT's More Gift Card Sentiments.
For the first three cards, I used Papertrey Ink's Flipping Out to make my cute flip-flops. The "Enjoy your vacation!" sentiment is also from this set. The woodgrain and yellow heart paper are from Simple Stories I {HEART} SUMMER and the yellow polka dots is Bo Bunny.
Since I was using a brown grid background paper from Echo Park for this one, I stamped my sentiment on a banner made with a die from MCT's Just Simply Live. The pretty aqua polka dot paper is from PTI's Library Ledger.
This one was inspired by the card I posted yesterday. How easy to cut a strip of Simple Stories paper and pop on a coordinating layered sticker?
And lastly, for the two male teachers, I used the same elements that I used for my brother's birthday tag earlier this week: PTI's Seeing Stars die and stamps from Pedal Pushers, Super Stars, and Grunge Me. I accidentally stamped the "Thank You" to high, but adding a curved stitched line from MCT's Gift Card Sentiments evened it out and created a fun look!
Inside each one is a Peet's gift card. I have to say, I think I use my Embossed Gift Card Holder Die more than any other die that I own! So easy!!!
