Congraduations!

I wanted to do something that Brady would always remember for his graduation.  Something that he could always look back on and chuckle about.  And here is what I came up with:

It only took me 3 1/2 hours to roll up all the dollar bills but it was worth it! I had to roll them up as tight as I could and then I tied each one of them with curling ribbon in his school colors.  In order to find out how many dollar bills were enclosed, he had a diploma like letter to read and the contents of it said:

Brady, we are so very proud of

 how much you have accomplished

 during these past 17 years.

Cheery Christmas Cards

The Gingerbread Men are my favorite!

In total, I made close to 80 cards.

Christmas Ornaments

Yes, I know it's a little late to be posting Christmas creations from this past year, but this is the first chance I've actually gotten.  I made each one of my students one of the ornaments and I also made each one of our children one for the tree.  In total, I made 64 ornaments because I did sell quite a few to co-workers.  I cannot wait to make these again for our upcoming Christmas.  I'd love to do a Twilight theme and WVU Mountaineer set.  :o)

2012 Class T's

Well, finally I am posting! It's been an extremely busy school year and I have had my hands full.  I wasn't prepared for the amount of time it added to go from a class of 20 kids to 30! But we did it! After 9 long weeks, I finally got everyone's class t-shirt designed and finished.  The parents loved them and I thought they turned out pretty cute myself.  Hoping to post more pics soon! Have a great summer!
