Teachers are amazing...

I am sending this into my "grade one-er"'s (as he calls himself) teacher because she is clearly amazing...

We had his 7th birthday party this past weekend at our house- 2 parents to 12 boys (ages 5-8) - it was an intense 2 hours.  Their energy was unbelievable - it's a wonder the only "injury" was one bloody nose!  And this was not even all the boys in his class - imagine a class full!!  I am still in a state of shock from the party - I don't think I'll ever forget it!!


Instructions:
1)      stamp 3 pencils, colour with copics and cut out
2)      cut 3 thin strips of cardstock in the same colour as the pencils
3)      adhere pencils & thin strips to white cardstock of main panel
4)      stamp sentiment
5)      mat main panel in black
6)      adhere orange patterned paper to bottom ¾ of card base
7)      adhere twill ribbon where orange paper and card base meet
8)      adhere main panel over top
9)      adhere punched star

Supplies:

Paper:  GinaK (Pure Luxury White), BasicGrey (lime rickey), A muse (cobalt blue, shimmery orange, chiffon green), Stampin’Up! (basic black), Copic (XpressIt blending cardstock)
Ink:  Palette hybrid (noir black), Memento (tuxedo black)
Stamps:  A muse (pencil, for a special teacher)
