Teacher Appreciation Cards with Tammy and Candice

Hello! Tammy here with a fun project, featuring Teacher Appreciation, a versatile sentiment set that can be used not only for teachers, but for so many occasions and people in your life! For my project, I created an A2 card and a fun pencil shaped card.

For the A2 card I started with a white cardstock card base, then layered a green dotted rectangle cut from the Dots & Stripes Jewel Tones 6X6 Paper. Next, I added some fun notebook looking paper I found in my stash and stamped it with a sentiment from Teacher Appreciation in black ink, then added a little apple from Harvest Mice. To create the pencil, I cut yellow striped paper from the Dots & Stripes Jewel Tones 6X6 Paper using the Slimline Pennant Die. I cut 3 more pennants using kraft, guava, and silver cardstock. I created a scalloped edge using the smaller border die from the Slimline Pennant Die, then layered it over the kraft pennant. I used the Fishtail Banner Dies to create the pointed edge of the pencil. I then trimmed down the silver and guava pennants and attached to create the eraser and silver band you would find on a pencil. I added a little piece of charcoal cardstock to the end of the pencil to look like the lead. 

I attached the pencil to the card with foam tape for dimension, then white heat embossed the sentiment onto a charcoal cardstock sentiment strip to complete my card.

The shaped card was created exactly as the pencil on the A2 card, but I used the larger pennant from the Slimline Pennant Die to create it. Once the pencil was created, I attached it to a white card base, measuring 2 3/4 X 6 1/2" when folded. I then trimmed the sides along the pencil to create the pointed shape. Next, I stamped the sentiment in black ink from Teacher Appreciation onto some patterned paper and die cut it with the Stitched Circle Dies. I then layered it onto a charcoal Scalloped Circle Mat, added a small apple from Harvest Mice, and adhered to my card with foam tape to complete it!

Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you enjoyed my projects today! See you next time!

Hello! Candice with you sharing a fun thank you card today using the multi-purpose Teacher Appreciation stamp set!

I used these Sunny Studio products for my design:

• Teacher Appreciation stamps
• Looking Sharp stamps & coordinating dies
• Comic Strip Everyday dies
• Slimline Scalloped Frame dies
• Subtle Grey Tones 6x6 paper pad
• Gold Jewels

I began with a 6 1/2 x 5 card base. For the background, I die cut multiples of the Comic Strip Frame from grey cardstock and backed with the woodgrain pattern paper. I then die cut multiples of the 'thank you' and layered them adhering the 'thank' with foam tape and gluing the 'you' in the center frame.

Next, I stamped the cacti, colored them with copic markers, and cut out with the coordinating dies. I finished the sentiment with the smaller sentiments heat embossed in white on black banners and the 'brightened' in gold on white cardstock adhered with foam tape. A sprinkle of gold jewels add a bit of sparkle!

Thank you for stopping by with me today!
