Part 2 of Cricuting the Classroom!

I wanted to make a special "school" oriented Welcome Banner for outside my classroom.  I wanted it simple and cute!  

First, I cut scalloped circles as large as I could on a piece of 12x12 cardstock!  Aren't they cute?

Then I cut the letters to spell welcome in blue cardstock at about 9".  

Next, I accessorized each letter with a school item to give it a little something.  The items are cut at about 4".  The apple is from Locker Talk.

The crayon is from Locker Talk as well.  Can you tell I was new to Cricut when I did this?  I couldn't figure out how to do the layer, so I actually colored it!  (Gasp!  Now, I know how!)

The backpack was a cute addition to the letter "L."  Can you guess the cartridge?  Yes, Locker Talk!

I LOVE this pencil!  I also like how it looks like it just finished writing the letter "c."

Scissors for the "O"

"First Grade" sign from Locker Talk, since I teach first grade!

Lastly, a glue bottle!
