My son's last day of school was May 20. Here are a couple of pictures of the cute little cards I made for his teacher and parapro. They are apple blackout features from the Doodlecharms Cricut cartridge; I put 2 on my Gypsy, flipped one, and then welded them together to form the card base. Then, I used the layers feature to get the red and brown parts and the original apple for the green and then layered them on top of each other. The words are from the Cuttin' Up Cricut cartridge ("Thanks A Million!" is a button on the cart and for the #1 Teacher, I used letters from Cuttin' Up and then welded "Teacher" with my Gypsy). For the sentiments on the inside, I copied and pasted poems found on the web onto a MS Word document and played with locations on the page until it fit inside my apple card cutouts. Then, I placed my printed-on paper into my Cricut and cut out the apple shapes again to form the card liners. Thanks for looking!!
This was a card I made for my son's student teacher, Mr. P, on his last day with the class. The "A+" was cut from Locker Talk, the word "Teacher" was from Cuttin' Up [and welded using my Gypsy (TM)], and the apple and its shadow from Doodlecharms. I just glued the "I <3 School" paper strip down, along with some teacher-y ribbon and the words onto a standard 8.5"x11" half-fold greeting card. Then, I "popped" the apple over its shadow with some 3-D adhesive dots. Hope you like it! TFL
