Thank-You Card for a Teacher

I hate to miss an Impression Obsession challenge, but wow, this one was hard for me. The challenge is School Spirit or School Colours. It's been a looong time since I went to school and have no clue about school colours.
What I did find was a great little paper pad (in my massive collection of 6x6 pads that I don't have a clue how to use). It is called "Off to School" by Fancy Pants. So then all I needed was something in my IO collection to use with it. I am so happy that I bought the 'Girl with Easter Basket' ) die (DIE260-I). This die is so sweet and can certainly be used for a lot more than Easter. I just trimmed up the die-cut to remove the basket and instead added an apple from another IO die (DIE203-A). I also used the IO All Occasions II stamp set for the sentiment. I think it might be suitable as a thank-you card for a teacher.

  3. Hi Shona, I loved how you used her - very creative. I have her but haven't used her yet. Thanks for the inspiration! Great papers and colors too. This would have been perfect for teacher appreciation day last week in my kids' school!
