Last week was Teacher Appreciation week, but I wanted to finish my post of the Minecraft party so I had to share what we did for the teachers. The PTF gave suggestions for each day, one day was a handmade card. I found this really cool FREE printable for Thanks a Latte on Eighteen 25. As you know I love these amazing bloggers that make these items and give free printable's, in my world they are rockstars!!
What you Need:
White Card Stock
Coffee Gift Card
Coffee Sleeve
Ribbon
Hot Glue Gun (or Glue)
I picked up a Starbucks giftcard while I was grocery shopping so I had to use a sleeve I picked up from target. I would have liked to use a Starbucks one, but I didn't have time to run there so I used what was handy. You know me I love my hot glue gun, you can use regular glue but I'm all about my glue gun.
Print the card, if you have 5x7 paper print on that if not use a regular sheet and cut yourself. If you know me I'm all about no waste and I had some 5x7 paper on hand (you can even use 4x6). I cut the coffee sleeve in half and trimmed to fit on the card. I should have trimmed a little more now looking at it, but it turned out pretty cute! I took the hot glue and went along the bottom and the side and attached to the card. She tied her's with twine I had some green ribbon left over from a previous project and used it :). Wrap the ribbon around twice so you can tie in front. When all dry insert the gift card in the top of the sleeve. Have your little one write their name on the bottom next to from.
Quick and Easy but so worth it! Cole's teacher came up to me and said her and her boyfriend thought it was the cutest card she had ever received!!
So darn cute. And who wouldn't love that?
