Teacher Thank You's

Happy Thursday!  Today I'm popping in to share two thank you cards I made for my son's teachers at his school.  Over the years I've done different themed goodie bags with everything from movie tickets, popcorn and candy to Bath & Body Works to you name it (my oldest is 21, I've done a lot of teacher gifts over the years).  This year they're getting handmade cards with gift cards to Panera Bread inside.

I used the Papertrey Ink stamp sets, Apple Prints and Ombre Builders along with a Lawn Fawn thanks die.  I'm entering this card in this week's Inkspirational Challenge since I used the text block from the Ombre Builders set and the challenge is to use text.  I started out with a white card base, then added a panel of real red which I had stamped using the strip of apples from the Apple Prints set.  Then I adhered a piece of white cardstock which I had stamped in charcoal ink with the alphabet block and rounded the corners with a corner rounder.  On top of that I added my die cut and stamped apples, popping up the yellow, daffodil delight stamped apple, next my banner with black die cut thanks and a button with black & white bakers twine. Thanks for your visit!
