I made the initial sign from ELEGANT EDGES Cricut cartridge cut at 11.12in in H & 9.10 in W. Using the Oblong feature on the Gypsy/keypad overlay on # 31.
I used plain old cardboard that comes with your paper from the LSS. Using the Scrap-booking paint from Making Memories I painted in Pansy Purple. Inked around the edging using Grey Flannel ink from Close to My heart
I then created in my Gypsy using the Font in CAR DECALS creating most of the words. Makin' the Grade cartridge was used for the Apple and the teachers name. I cut all the words out using Yellow vinyl from Oh My Crafts.
Red cardstock for the Apple cut out 2 times with yellow. I used the yellow words inside the apple. The Apple is 3d suing the dots. Close to My Heart twine was used to hang up the sign.
The black A-Z is rub-ons from Glitz Rub-ons and the smaller rub-ons are from Making Memories. Both rub-ons have been in my stash for a while - perfect to have when you need it most!
I wanted to put a pic of a roadrunner (school mascot) but will go to the school this week and take a pic of it! Hope you like it!
Not only is this a present for my 1st graders teacher BUT also entering it at www.mypinkstamper.com for making a 3D school project. Sorry I didn't have any of your stamps to use.. One day I will :)
I LOVE ALL my Cricut toys and Gypsy.. and my embossing and my stamps and my.. You get it right. :) I hope I inspire you as you have all inspired me! ((hugs))
