Hi everyone! Today is Day 5 of MFT's April Teasers. I am excited to share a fun, new a la mode with you, An Apple for Teacher. I also have peeks of a couple new Die-Namics.
With the new stamp set I made a Tri-Fold card and gift for a favorite teacher. I stamped in image in black ink, colored with Copics, and paper pieced her shirt. Then I cut her out with the new Fishtail Flags STAX Die-namics.
The shading is with done with Prism Colored Pencils. I added a ribbon to tie the card shut. My papers are from Graphic 45 ABC Primer.
On the first page that shows when the card is open I added a sentiment from the stamp set cut out with one of the smaller dies in the Fishtail Flag STAX Die-namics.
When the card is completely open I added a pocket for a gift card and other sentiment from the set. The letters ABC are cut with the new By the Letter Uppercase Die-namics. You could also add a note from the student or a photograph.
