Teacher Appreciation

Hello there!  It's that time of year again.  To celebrate our great teachers!!  So, I'm sharing a card I made for one of my son's teachers.  This is the end of middle school for him.  My baby is growing up! 

I kept this card pretty simple with inking and 3D embossing.  I spritzed the panel with water before running it through the diecutting machine.  Love how it turned out.

 


Supplies:
Tim Holtz distress Oxide - Peacock Feathers
Tim Holtz - Crackle 3D embossing folder
Unity Stamp Co - Say It Big dies
Unity Stamp Co - Gotta Love Sentiments - (on envelope flap)
pop dots
