teacher's gifts

I admit, not all of my crafts are my original idea. I like to check out other blogs, craft magazines and other places to get ideas that I can use for inspiration. I was stuck with a good teacher's gift so I found some ideas on my favorite website Pinterest...there was a link to this site with the idea I used.

And here is how mine turned out for Brandon's teacher Mrs. Oliff...



And here was the card I made for her:



Then came gifts for the three wonderful aides in his class...Pinterest also let me to this blog. What a cute idea! Here is my version:





I used the cricut to cut out the lemonade and the tags! I thought they turned out really cute!

I also needed gifts for the bus driver and the bus monitor...So for them, I got them each a fun water bottle and a gift card to Starbucks. I cut out a bus for each of them on the cricut and glued them to the gift card envelope with a saying of "The bus stops here!"

We had some left over pieces of crayons from the teacher gift, so we decided to melt them up and make "circle crayons"...

The boys loved using them as circles!
