Have a Sweet...Candy Bar Holder for Teacher

In a blatant scraplift from "In Love with a Bug" I couldn't resist making one of my one candy bar holders for a teacher!  Check out the original blog where I got this idea!  http://inlovewithabug.blogspot.com/

My son and I made this together.  He picked the papers, font and ribbon!  The scantron form background paper is from The Hittin' the Stacks Paper Pack from DCVW.  The blue title block is a bulk blue cardstock. We cut the letters (Have a at .8 inches, Sweet at 1.2 inches) from Opposites Attract.  The apple is from My World and we used a bunch of little scraps.  It was also cut at 1.2 inches.  We put the ruler ribbon along the bottom of the title block and added a black fiber knot for a little emphasis.

Inside is much the same!  Another blue title block with the title cut in black from Opposites Attract.  I added a little red jewel for some added color.  See the envelope part?  Above the scantron?  That's where a regular size Hershey bar will slide in.  My 5th grade son thought this was "cool enough" for him to give to his teacher...none of those silly cards...Thank goodness I found something he is willing to hand his teacher! ;)

Thanks A Munch!



I made this cute apple card for my daughter's teacher to say thank you for working so hard!  I used the apple from My World and flipped and welded two of them together to make a card.  I cut the apples 3 times, once in red, once in green (for the leaves) and once in cream, for the inside.  My daughter suggested we add a worm or caterpillar to the apple and I suddenly thought, "Ah ha!  Thank you very munch!"  I used George and Basic Shapes to weld circles together for the body and then used a pair of quotation marks for the antenna.  After welding it all together I cut it! I added a silver heart paperclip and threaded a tag onto it that I cut from George as well.  I wrote "Thank You Very Munch" on the tag.  I then hand cut a small bite from the RED apple, leaving the cream showing.  I think it turned out cute!


Here's a quick soccer card my daughter wanted to make for her coach.  I used Sports Mania and cut the soccer girl and the soccer ball.  I welded two soccer balls like I did with the apple card.  We cut 2 soccer girls in two different colors so we could make a maroon jersey, to match my daughter's uniform!  My daughter assembled it and wrote inside with a white gel pen.  Easy enough for a 7 year old!
