I decided to use my Petite Places dies & stamps to make some back to school gifts for my favorite teachers. Although they have been back to school for a month, I'm sure they will enjoy this special treat.
I decided that I'm not very good at the stamping part, so I used the dies to cut out card stock. I meant to take pictures before I put the domes on them, but I forgot. It's kind of hard to see them, but I am very pleased with the way they came out. I had some gold star glitter in my stash which I think goes quite well with the teacher theme. It reminded me of those stars that you had to lick that the teachers would put on our papers. I guess I'm dating myself!
I saw these cut little jars in Wal-Mart, so I made a smaller one for my friend. She is working at a charter school this year, and they have a strict no junk food policy for teachers and students. So, she will have to enjoy the candy part at home, if her husband and sons don't find it first! I used my Cricut to cut the scalloped circle as none of the Nestabilities seemed to be the right size.
Supplies:
Stamps: Papertrey Ink-Petite Places School
Ink; Versafine, Papertrey Ink
Paper: Recollections, Bazzill
Misc: Mason jars, baker's twine, candy, star glitter, Petite Places School dies, Cricut Design Space
