Finished project for daughters students

This is the finished project. Thank you to Barbara Welch for her swaps for convention. I used the retired pillow box, 1 1/4", 1" and 3/4" circle punches, 1 3/4" scalloped punch and the triangle punch to finish the project. Soft Suede, whisper white, tangelo twist, and in neutrals designer paper complete the supplies. I put a large pink eraser in each one. I love how they turned out and can't wait to hear her students reactions.

Gifts for my daughter's second grade students

My daughter was recently hired as a second grade teacher. These are the pieces of the gifts I'm making for her students. Can you guess what it is? I'll post the updated project tomorrow. I've used the retired pillow box die, Baked Brown Sugar, Whisper White, and Basic Black cardstock, plus a touch of Hello Honey.

This is one of my favorite cards from past classes. I love the Baked Brown Sugar and Pink Pirouette combination. We used the Petite Petal stamp set and punch. Such a delicate card that can be used for any need. I think it would make a beautiful wedding invitation. I'll work on that and post a picture when it is finished.
