Summer holidays are almost here and I have already shared several ideas for Teacher Gifts that you can make, so now’s the time to make Thank You Teacher cards to go with them. The best thing about them is that they are quick and easy and don’t require too many craft supplies.
They literally take five minutes to make and I love the cute lined-paper look that they have. You just need:
White card: in my case I used plain cards I bought in bulk that I use for everything- but you could just fold regular card in half.
Pencils: red and pale blue
Felt-tip: red and green.
A ruler
So you first need to draw a margin with your ruler down the length of the card in red pencil.
Using the blue pencil draw lines across the card at one centimetre intervals- I started 2cms down from the top of the page.
Get your child to write whatever you want on the page: Thank You, in this case, but you could add the teacher’s name too.
Finally you need an apple. Now there are a few ways of doing this. The quickest and easiest would be to draw one on in felt-tip, but you could print one, press scrunched tissue paper up and stick it on, or cut out an apple from card or foam sheets and fix them on too.
Have a go. Easy as 1-2-3!
Ooooh I likey!!! Thanks for joining in with the #GetYourCraftOn #Stationery challenge!!
No problem Maggy.
Grenglish- i reckon you can manage anything x
Cute! I cheated and bought ours this year – had to do it in a hurry as we’re skipping the end of term (last chance before Austin goes to ‘big school’ in Sept! I’ll definitely bear this in mind for next year, though.
My daughter would love to make these!
This is my first year of having to think about cards and gifts for the teacher and assistants but these look great and maybe even easy enough for my non-crafty hands to get to grips with 🙂
