S'mores Goodies for Meet the Teacher Night

When the students in my class come for Meet the Teacher, I always like to have a little something for them to take home. The little something usually includes a treat and a project for them to work on. The treat they keep (of course) and the project is something they do and bring with them the first day of school. I find it gets them a little more excited about coming. For the treat this year I went with a s'mores goody. Since the theme in my room is camping, I thought s'mores would be perfect. I found these cute little tin buckets at the dollar spot at Target. I used the Under the Stars set to stamp the s'mores image. It is colored in with watercolor crayons and blender pens. I punched them out with the 1 1/4" cirlce punch and layered it with Early Expresso punched with the 1 3/4" circle punch. Those are both on the 1 3/4" scallop cirlce punch in Old Olive. I used the medium cello bags and tied some retired Chocolate Chip ribbon around the bag. Used linen thread to tie the smore's image on. I then used the Serif Essentials Bigz die to cut out each of the kiddos letter of their first name. That way they can pick the bucket with their letter on it when they come. Nothing fancy, but I think the kids will like them.

Classroom Cubby Name Tags

Here are the cubby name tags I'm making for the kiddos in my class this year. I'm doing a camping theme in my room, so I pulled out the Stampin' Up! set Under The Stars. I really like this set - so cute! I don't have my final class list yet, so I only put names on 2 of the name tags. Only 18 more to go! I colored the bear and raccoon in with Stampin' pastels and cut them out. The names I'm using the sizzix die Wingo Zingo with SU! Confetti White cardstock. Sorry about the pictures. The colors didn't turn out very well. They are supposed to be More Mustard, Pumpkin Pie, and Pear Pizzazz. Not sure why they seem so bright. When I get them all completed I will be laminating them so they last the entire school year.
