Bird’s Eye View for Teachers!

I made these cards yesterday- I thought they would be perfect for teachers!

I cut my paper to 5-3/8″ x 4-1/8″. I then stamped the new Sketched Plaid stamp. On one card it’s Balmy Blue, the other is Crumb Cake.  Everything else is the same. I think I like the Crumb Cake a little better, my I change my mind constantly!

After stamping, I then used the dies from Gorgeously Made for the top of bottom of the cardstock. It looks like the edge of notebook paper!

The birds and books were stamped with Memento and colored with Blends. The birds were colored with the Medium Blends. Books are Real Red, Old Olive, Daffodil Delight and the pages are Ivory.

The “thanks” is from Biggest Wish.  I stamped with Real Red.

When I look at apples, I think of teachers. So when the dies came out (only here until 9/30), I knew I wanted to make a thank you card that would be great for a teacher! And using the die from the Blossoming Happiness dies, I knew I had to make one of the backgrounds look like notebook paper!

Here’s my video on how I made the notebook paper:
