FLOWERS FOR THE TEACHER USING CRICUT SAMPLER

Hi Everyone!  Tuesday was "flower day" for Teacher Appreciation Week at Jacob's school.  We went to Home Depot and bought some petunias for Ms. Pennington.  We put the tub down in the ceramic flower pot then:

  • We cut out the "#1 Teacher Award" at 4 1/4" using the Cricut Sampler cartridge. 
  • We cut the butterfly using the same cartridge at 4". 
  • We then attached both the award and the butterfly to wooden skewers and pushed them down in the flower pot. 
  • The label was cut using the Elegant Edges cartridge at 3".
I told Jacob he would have to carry it in school to Ms. Pennington.  He said - "Aw, Mom, can't I put it in my backpack?  Everyone will be looking at me."  I told him that he wouldn't be the only one carrying flowers tomorrow so he agreed to take it to her.  BOYS!!!!

Thanks for stopping by today and please let us know if you see something you like.  We enjoy hearing from our blogger friends!  Until another day, God Bless You!! Donna
