Happy Monday! I hope you had a wonderful weekend celebrating Mother's Day. The hubby earned brownie points with me . . . he made breakfast - - rice, Portuguese sausage and egg. Also got me a flower lei to wear to church! :) Lastly, we had a cozy dinner at home. Yep, he cooked again! Japanese food! Hubby made BBQ meat on the grill, made Shrimp Tempura, tofu with ginger, and for dessert . . . ice cream! Well, the ice cream was actually for my kids.
Anyways, Teacher Appreciation Week was last week. I scrambled to put these together for my son's teachers. I am strapped for time these days, but managed to get them done.
The flower was made using SU! Fun Flower die. A couple of months ago, I got together with some friends and the wonderful Cami did a make 'n take. This is the project she had us make. I couldn't bear to adhere this flower on my project . . . the Fun Flower die had to be in my possession first for me to glue that pretty flower on! My flower is in no comparison to Cami's by far! Her fancy tulle makes it extra special! I added tulle to my flowers, but it doesn't have the same effect.
Here's the inside of the book. Cute yeah! :) Cami was crazy to prep all of this for us girls. She's amazingly talented and oh so generous! I took pics of some RAKS and stuff from that gathering but just never got a chance to post them. Will do laters!
Ok, got side tracked a bit. Back to the purses. Here is what I put inside of the purses. Now your wondering, "What the heck is all of that?"
This is the little note for my son's teachers . . .
All the items in the purse have a meaning and go with this note.
PAY - Pay Day Candy Bar
ZOO - Animal Crackers
HEADACHE - Tylenol
SILLY - Silly bands
HANDS - Hand Sanitizer
MARK - pen
LATTE - Starbuck's Gift Card
Anyway, just thought I'd share these purses with ya. Have a great day and thanks for stoppin' by!
Those are really beautiful. TFS
