First Day of School Teacher's Gift Card/Holder | SVGCuts

Hi guys!

Just wanted to share with you all the card I will be sending along with my kids for the teachers on Tuesday. This year they have a late start, probably because they went until the very end in June! Whatever the reason I am so grateful for the last few days!

So here are the First Day of School Teacher's Gift Cards I made! What teachers wouldn't love to receive these cuties?!

first day of school,Teacher Cards,#SVGCuts,Silhouette Cameo,SVGCuts file,back to school ideas,gift card holder,teacher Gift,ilovedoingallthingscrafty,

Here is what they look like on the inside.


I created some cutout tabs on the inside offset layer (3.5 inches apart) just make sure when you glue the layer down you don't glue them down! I also created the card using the bottom (yellow) layer by welding the flipped image of it together to create the base of the card. See the image below for the pieces I used to make the cards ;)


Here is a close-up so you can see the embossing, inking, and other embellishments! Backpack blues stamp comes from Craftin' Desert Divas School Zone set. Thought it was the perfect sentiment for teachers on their first day back ;)


Files for this card are a mash-up from SVGCuts, Miss Baker's Classroom SVG Kit.

Hope my little back to school creations, have inspired you to create gift cards of your own :)

Thanks for stopping by!
Happy Crafting  :)

3D Paper Back Pack | SVG Cuts

My kids start school already tomorrow, where has the summer gone *as I dry weepy eye's*  :( 
So for today, I want to share with you all this cute 3D Paper Back Pack I made for my daughter's teacher!


This awesome file from SVG Cuts is super quick and easy to put together. 
The file comes from their Back to the Books SVG Kit. The cute patterned paper I used is from Fleurette Bloom's School Days Paper Pack. If you're still looking for last-minute school projects you should definitely check out these links!


Here's a closer look! The backpack is the perfect size to fill up with a few goodies. Great for someone headed back to school!


I hope her teacher is gonna love it as much as I do! Also, if you haven't yet check out the cool 3D sneaker I made for my son's teacher!

Thanks so much for stopping by today!
Happy Crafting :)

DIY Desk Organizers | Recycled Tin Cans


One of my most popular posts was this desk organizer I made for my craft room. Click HERE to check it out! So with back to school around the corner, I thought I would make a few more and get the kids coloring supplies organized.


This project is super simple and quick to make! The two I made below must have taken me less then 15 minutes make. All you need is a few tin cans, decorative duct tape, hot glue, and ribbon if you like. Make them with as many cans as you like... so easy! Click here for instructions.
Here is the hot pink zebra-patterned organizer I made for my daughter.


And here is the one I made for my son with the mustache pattern. 


Hopefully, this will get my kids back into school mode (fingers crossed). Well if it doesn't, hopefully at least it inspires you to create your own. Something like this would also be perfect in the kitchen or the bathroom... Hmmm, getting more ideas... better keep saving those cans!

Thanks so much for stopping by! 
Happy Crafting :)
