Teacher Tiles

Well hello! While I have been absent on the blog front, I HAVE been creating enough things to post for a bit. Even though school is out for the summer and we are starting the "summer routine" I have finally manged to get caught up enough to play! Up above is one of the sets of tiles that I made for teacher gifts at the end of the school year. These are soooooo easy and inexpensive and FUN to create.

The card down below is one that I made at the Annual SCS San Antonio SWAP at the beginning of the year. I don't know who designed this card so I can't give proper kudos to them. If y'all know who did then let me know, okey-doke? I did add the green/white paper flowers to the card in order for it to go along with theme of these teachers gifts- you'll see the entire ensemble in a minute.

I bought this jade plant at a grocery store and stamped on the front and then covered it with sealant- then glue-dotted (is that a word?) the paper flowers on.


And finally decorated a gift bag with the teachers names for the coasters, plant and card to go into!


Well, I just realized that I didn't take pics. of all these items together- use your imagination! The teachers loved them. I made two sets and used mostly SU! products except for the paper flowers ( I stole those from my daughter's scrapbooking stuff- hee-hee- she'll never miss 'em!).

Like I said before stamping on tiles is easy-peasy. I glued cork on the back so they would not scratch any furniture- baked the stamped tiles at 350 degrees for 30 minutes to set the craft ink and then sprayed the front with a sealer.

Hope you enjoy and I'm off to work on yet another post- here's a hint- a card inspired by a gift card!

Have a wonderful day! Lisa
