You should have arrived here from Jessica.

For my project, I created these cute little water cans for my kids teachers. I found this idea on pinterest and added my own little twist to it! I used dry erase markers as the stems and cut out flower bases to add to the top. Some flowers have button middles or dots, and others have sentiments from Jaded Blossom. I used vinyl on the front of the cans with the teachers initial. 

Thanks for stopping by today your next stop is Silvia.

Teacher Valentine's Day Gift

Along with the class treats that I already posted, my cousin asked me to make 2 teacher gifts as well. I bought these amazing Gable Boxes from Pick Your Plum a few weeks ago and knew right away I was using them! 

I used a bunch of different Jaded Blossom goodies on these boxes, as well as Close To My Heart items! 

I wrapped burlap ribbon around the box (adheres great with a hot glue gun!) For the tags, I used Candy Charms & Banners as well as Mini Tag Dies. The circle stamps are JB Teacher Appreciation Candies & Valentine Candies. The sentiment is a CTMH stamp that was from their Whoo's Your Valentine promotion. I inked everything with red and black ctmh ink. 

The candies are stamped with mroe Valentine Candies stamps. Added a glue dot to each one to hold nicely =)  Off to start my kids treats now! 

Gingerbread Treat Jar

It's that time of the year again! We lucked out this year with some really great teachers for the boys! Very excited to make their gifts this year! 

My Gingerbread treat jar is for our 4th grade teacher. Hope she loves it! 

I used LOTS of great Jaded Blossom goodies for this treat! And, because my cameo decided to not cut paper (i guess shes a vinyl only kinda gal), I pulled out my E2 and actually really enjoyed using it! 

I got this overly cute little scoop from JB. I put twine around it and hot glued it to my AC xmas ribbon. The burlap around the jar I also bought from JB. My tag is from their Treat Tag Die. I also used stamps from Gingerbread Wishes & Winter Wishes. My paper is from Echo Park. 

I added a piece of coordinating cardstock to my burlap so I can stick my gingerbread to the jar using an Action Wobble. I really love these things! I cut my gingerbread man at 2.5" from Create A Critter 2. 

I stamped 45 kisses with JB's Gingerbread Candies. 

My little guy has a stickle bowtie and pearl buttons.

Thanks for taking a peek!
