I hope your summer has been full of fun so far! Can you believe that it is already getting
to be the time of year when most of us start thinking of back to school, fall, and the upcoming
holidays? Wow - time sure does fly!
Many of my customers tell me that they love to treat teachers with little gifts at the
beginning of the school year. The trick is coming up with something unique, quick, and
affordable.
My teacher friends tell me that while they appreciate the thought, they have enough mugs
and apple-themed knick-knacks. The best gifts they receive are those that they can use
in the classroom. With coordinating products from Stampin’ Up!, you can create thoughtful
and useful gifts that also fit the unique, quick, and affordable requirements.
One super fast
option is to rip a strip of the Flirtatious (#122335) or Timeless Portrait (#122337) Designer
Fabric to about 2" x 12" then knot it around a bundle of pencils or pens. Add a coordinating
stamped tag with a thoughtful message or silly pun, and you’ve got a useful gift any teacher
will love. Step it up by adding die-cut flowers from the coordinating Designer Series Paper
to the tops of the pencils or pens with Mini Glue dots to create a bouquet. The same concept
works great with a stack of sticky notes. Composition books, journals, or clipboards covered
with Designer Series Paper are also useful gift options. Personalize them with a stamped
embellishment or a monogram and a coordinating pen for a thoughtful gift that will be used
and appreciated daily. Lastly, what teacher wouldn't appreciate a stamp pad and teacher-approved stamp set such as the From Your Teacher stamp set (#122730)?
All of these gift ideas use the beauty and coordination of Designer Series Paper to make
the projects unique and fast. With the Buy 3, Get 1 Free Designer Series Paper special going
on now, it’s the perfect time to stock up on a variety of patterned papers for all of your back
to school, fall, and holiday projects!
Happy Stampin'

Q&A
Q: How do you tie great bows? I look at the catalog and see perfect bows,
but mine never turn out looking that nice. What’s the trick?
A: There sure are some amazing bows out there! You are right - there are a couple of tricks.
First of all, there are many ways to tie bows. I’ll share a quick tutorial below with one of my
favorite bows! Second, knowing which types of ribbons work best with certain bows is a big
help. And lastly, once you’ve learned about the first two tricks, the last trick is just good
old
fashioned practice!
