Grab your suntan lotion and a towel and
get ready for a fun Summertime Hop to get some great ideas
to get caught up with old summer photos and lots of ideas
for inspiring you for this summer too!!
Its not quite summer time yet, so before school lets out here is a great
craft the kids can do to make a gift for their teacher.
I used Best Creation I Love America line and cut out
long triangle shapes, and then simply rolled
the paper and added a bit of glue to the end to
hold the roll in place.
The longer the triangle the thicker it
The longer the triangle the thicker it
is in the middle, so if you don't want them too thick just adjust the
length of the triangle.
Once a few rolls were made, using some liquid glue
I adhered them onto cardstock.
I pre printed the monogram first to give the kids a framework
to work within.
The teachers name can be added first by computer printer or after
using rubons or stickers or even have the kids hand write it.
Next on the hop is Jona who has another great project to share with everyone.
Don't forget to leave a comment on the Best Creation blog , Twitter, and Facebook for three chances
to win a June Release prize,
and for another chance to win
I will choose a winner from the comments on my blog for a prize from the May Release papers.
Happy hopping!
Contest ends Sunday May 29th at Midnight.
Such a cute idea, and Best Creation papers are perfect for this project ..... they are thick and sturdy, and will hold the rolls well!

ReplyDeleteat first I thought the rolled papers were crayons
LOVE THIS!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou could also use small pencils wrapped in paper. I take them away from students and that would give me something to do with them. Very cool idea!
