Hi everyone! As many of your know, my "real" job is as an educator and this month has been my department's Back to School month, which consists of helping teachers in our district prepare for the return of our students. Since I have been consumed with work, which always encroaches a bit on my hobby (LOL), I thought it would be appropriate to share little desk caddy created with the delicious Apple Cider Collection. Below are just a few directions on what I used to create this special gift for a child's teacher.
First of all, I started with one of these...
 | ||
| Purchased at Hobby Lobby |
Then I painted it with this...
 |
| Burnt Sienna Acrylic Paint |
 |
| Fall In Love 12x12 Paper |
 |
| Nature Trails Ribbon |
 |
| Fiskars Scallop Border Punch |
Then I cut this...
Using this...
 |
| Cricut Country Life Cartridge |
 | |
| Cricut Expressions Machine |
And ended up with this...
Ready for a Giveaway???
Leave a comment and be eligible to win one of these... |
| Cricut Simply Charmed Cartridge |
Thank you so much for stopping by - Liz
