Listen up! {Confessional}........I am a procrastinator.....ugh I said it! I put it out there for all of you to see. It is part of who I am and I am constantly trying to better myself in this area but it is one of my faults. I hope you are going to choose to love me anyway......On the bright side I work BEST under pressure so some of my best ideas come from the 12 hour period before my deadline.
I do have a reason for this confessional. I am sharing the last minute gifts that I made for the kids teacher appreciation gifts late Thursday night. I made them from stuff that I had laying around and I think I started at about 11:00pm....see I told you PRO-CRAS-TIN-ATOR! Anyway I thought that they turned out pretty cute and they were super simple so I thought I would share so if any of you wanted to give it a try yourself you could file it away in your memory bank.
I started with blank cards that you can buy at any craft store. Or you could just cut from card stock if you really wanted to.
Then I cut out brackets with my Silhouette machine {That I got for Mothers day and am sooo thankful for!} and glued them on with an amazing glue pen from Martha Stewart. No seriously its amazing! It is a felt pen and a liquid glue almost like a paint pen you should get one from Michaels.
Then cut out the letters and glued them on. Super easy and fun. If you don't have a cutting machine you could always use chipboard letters or cute stickers.
I am really liking the lowercase letters right now.
Switched it up with these and put a scroll design....as I am sure you can see :)
Here are some examples of others that I have made in the past. It really is such a fun gift to give homemade, personalized stationary. Give it a try and if you do send me pics!
