I made these to thank Alex's teacher/tutor. She worked with him the last few weeks of summer to get him up to speed for 4th grade. First I made the card, with the colors of the week Pacific Point, Garden Green, and Pumpkin Pie. to look as if the Owl is teaching. I saw this idea in a few places, but I decided he had to look as if he was standing on a bunch of books. Once again I have seen the idea of the owl standing on the books, but I tried to make it different. I stamped the numbers and alphabet from the First Day set. I also sponged some white around the outside of the black to make it look like a chalkboard. I also stamped Thank you in the middle of the board.
Next I made two owl paperclips to decorate the book Alex bought her.
Thanks for looking.
I was wondering where you got your big paper clips? I haven't been able to find any.
Thanks
