An apple for the Teacher

This weekend I finally messed up my clean craft space to get a few projects done. :) I began with BoBunny's current card challenge...to create a teacher inspired card. I was inspired to make an apple card so I got out my BoBunny double dot cardstock and went to work. Here is the end result:


I love how this turned out! I hand drew the apple shape...it's about 5.5 x 5.5". Then I created a little leaf using BoBunny's Clover Double Dot ribbon. I think I may try to create a flower using this same ribbon technique...such a great way to use up ribbon scraps. Then I just cut a little stem, added a button and some letter stickers (from BoBunny's Sophie collection), and finished it all off with a little May Arts twine.

I think I will be making a few more of these and maybe some coordinating gift bags too. I can hardly believe that the school year is almost over. My oldest has had a great year and my little one will be starting preschool in the fall, although he says he wants to be a first grader just like brother! :)

I hope you're having a wonderful weekend! We are having beautiful weather and enjoying playing outside. If you're doing some crafting today and you love BoBunny, there is still time to play along in the challenge...check it out HERE.
