C.R.A.F.T. Challenge


It is the first day of school here in Michigan today and for the first time in years I won't be standing at the door to greet students into the classroom. I decided to retire along with my husband. I waited until the last possible moment to make the decision. But now I can spend my days in my craftroom instead of the classroom. I made these little goody bags to go on top of each student's desk in the classroom as a welcome gift. A teacher friend of mine will be using them in her classroom. I used the Tags, Bags and Boxes Cricut cartridge to cut out each bag from craft paper (sized fit to page). The bus came from the Doodlecharms cartridge and I used the Plantin' Schoolbook cartridge for the letters. Inside each bag is a ruler, some pens and pencils, scissors, highlighter, a red marker for correcting classwork and a small box of crayons.
