Teacher Appreciation gift idea - Using Springtime Impressions butterfly die

May 17, 2018

Last week was Teacher appreciation week. Currently I sit on the PTF board and we honored the teachers in various ways however I wanted to do something special just for Nic's 2nd grade teacher. She is a rock star. I had these pencils made from Bossie Jossie and was so excited when they arrived. I showed them to Nic and he was less impressed. As he stated, every kid in class already has a pencil, mom ... and no one needs to borrow one.  Ha, well at least they are cute and it's the thought that counts.

It didn't take much to decorate this jar and make a great impression. Simply add pencils, a hand stamped tag and a die-cut butterfly and voila!  I am in LOVE with this new butterfly die from the Springtime Impressions thinlets. It's fantastic. I've had it for a week and has already become well used. Supplies for this project are listed below. These products can be ordered starting June 1.

Water & ink. I used water and classic ink to create this soft pastel card. Paper: watercolor paper. I used a variety of flower punches from my collection to create the multi-layered flowers. This card has so much dimension and is meant for hand delivery! 🤣 Use your stash! #stampinup #useyourstash #cardmaker #cardmakingreel

When I think of pastel I think watercolor. For this month our 'Use Your Stash' theme is PRETTY PASTEL. I pulled out the 'Good Greetings' stamp set and heat set the large greeting with white emboss powder. This greeting is so pretty. Then, I water painted a peachy color over the top for a soft & airy look. For the flowers I painted a few pink and peach multi-color washes and then punch out using various flower punches. The flower centers are irridescent rhinestones. Stampin' Up! products you can still purchase: Basic White cardstock, Fluid 100 watercolor Ink colors: Peach Pie, Pretty in Pink and Cloud Cover I can't wait to see what my friends pulled out from their stashes for this challenge. UYS is a monthly instagram hop where my friends and I get crafty and use what we have on hand to create a project around a certain theme. Use those supplies!

Cute little chicks lined up in a row … I was eyeballing it to try my hand at stamp alignment with this new Stampin’ Positioner tool. My free form is not perfect, but it doesn’t matter in the end when you mount your card crooked. 🐥🐥🐥🐥🐥 🤣 Stamp set is called Easter Basket and it’s on the last chance list. Stampin’ Positioner tool coming May 5th #stampinup #cardmaker #cardmaking #cardmakingreels
Hey Chick! I used the sketch from #gdp542 as a starting point for creating this simple card. The cute chick does all the work, like usual! Play along with @global_design_project and create a project from our challenge sketch.  The little chick image
