Yep, that time of year when I’m desperately trying to find something to give to the children’s teachers.  I did give them a mini stamp and ink spot in those little stamped gift bags I made but I wanted to give something extra.  It’s hard to know what a woman will like but I figure that giving chocolates will probably please 99% of the female population.   I bought a few large boxes of Lindt Balls but wasn’t keen on just wrapping up a box in Christmas paper… seemed to boring to me.  So I made these cool gift pouches for each of my Children’s teachers.

You like?   They’re so easy to make (once you know how) and look like you’ve been to a bit of effort.  You don’t need many materials either, all I have used is some 12×12 red cardstock, white cardstock, some ink and stamps, a clear button, gold cord, cellophane bag and gold embossing powder for the tag.  All the products are from Stampin’ Up! (and available for purchase through me ).

Look out early next year for announcements on special classes where I’ll be teaching how to make this gift pouch plus other boxes just in time for Easter!  Oh I can’t wait to make one of these filled with mini Easter Eggs.
