Holiday Gifts for the Teachers

I put together some little holiday gifts for Rich's teachers. Here is the candle from Bath & Body Works that I decorated using my new scallop border punch. Lurve it!



I embossed the stamp and sentiment on the front in gold and tied on a small jingle bell.












Here's the bag with the candle and treat sack together. I added a Holiday Greetings tag and tied a bigger jingle bell on it.

























Here are the treat sacks. I just got this quote stamp in a hostess set and thought it was fitting to stamp on a teacher's gift, since they give so much of themselves. It says, "The greatest gift is a portion of thyself. - Ralph Waldo Emmerson" I made a half dozen for the office staff and one to go in each teacher bag.

I stayed up way too late last night making these, but today was the last full day of school so I had to get them off to school with Rich. Oh well, it was fun and I thought they turned out well.
