eCraft Back to School Blog Hop

Welcome to the
BACK TO SCHOOL BLOG HOP!

All of the fabulous designers on this hop are showing you a BACK TO SCHOOL project using the Fabulous and versatile eCraft.

 I just want to personally thank all of the girls for being a part of this hop. I appreciate and respect all of these girls and their AMAZING talents. Thank you again girls for being in this hop with me. ;) Trust me you will not be disappointed.
Here are my projects for the hop. Not everyone did multiple projects but I did because I had some free time ;)

For the first project I decided to make a teacher treat bag. When I saw this file I had to have it. So here it is.
(Click on the image to see it enlarged)

Here's a list of What was used:
Ecraft- Miss Karen's Back to School Bags SVG Kit
Ink- Basic Black and real red (Stampin' Up)
Embellishments- Red twine
Stamps- Our Teachers
Tools- Big shot, spellbinder dies
Paper- all the paper is from my stash
Adhesive- ATG liquid adhesive and dimensionals

(Click on the image to see it enlarged)

I decided to make a teacher sign that any teacher can put on their desk. It is actually a board book so there is room for photos or signatures etc. Lucky for me all of the kiddos have female teachers this year! SCORE!!!!

Here is a list of what I used:
Ink- Basic Black from Stampin Up!
Embellishments- handmade flowers, half pearls (Basic Grey), Liquid Pearls, and Butterfly charm
Stamps- Birthday Bash, Smiling Daisies
Tools- Crop-a-dile
Paper- Stampin Up
Adhesive- ATG and liquid adhesive

  20. Hi Raven, I love your hop. I have finished and left a comment on everyone's blogs and are already or became a follower. The only site I had an issue with was Kimberly. She has a blinkie for back to school, but when I clicked on it, it didn't take me anywhere. Well I would love to be a winner of such a fantastic prize. If someone can tell me how to leave a comment on Kimberly's blog that would be great. Dee:)
