So making cards for teachers when I don't have a kiddo felt weird at first, but then I realized why!? I am a teacher and I want teachers to realize someone is thinking about them and wishing them a happy school year and empathizes with them.
Teachers I believe are seriously underappreciated. I loved my You Matter card, this one is a little different but has the same happy teacher vibes.
BOOM! I had to zoom this one in so you can read the pretty message! So this is a slider card, each pencil has a dimension adhesive attaching it to the strip so that you can pull the tabs and the pencil moves over showing words underneath. The hardest part actually was lining up the paper underneath the die cut slots so that it looked like the paper was put together. I took two identical pieces of this paper and cut them to size so that the one underneath was the same as the one on top, it made lining things up easier. The other paper I used was Crayola. I mean Crayola is just the best and their scrapbook / card making paper pad is so vibrant, that I have a hard time using the paper because I love it so much I don't want to mess it up!
Hope everyone is off to a good school year! Remember to be kind to those teachers! Barbara
