School Rules Treat Bag

It's DT day over at 

Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons

We just transferred my Maylena to a new school for kindergarten. She's was sad to leave her old school but we knew the move would be much better for her. I decided to make a little gift for her new teacher.

Back to School!

Welcome to another 

Cameo Creations Challenge!

Where it's all about Silhouette all the time! 

If you have any Silhouette machine, 

(Silhouette SD or Silhouette Cameo)

Join in the fun!

This week's challenge is: 

Back to School

(click on each image to enlarge it)

I made this card and treat bucket for my daughter's teacher. The inside of the card said, 

"Wishing you a SWEET year filled 

with little SHARPIES who 

STICK to their learning goals!"  

I can't believe Maylena's going into kindergarten already!

I got the super cute sign she's holding from Yellow Bliss Road. Kristin created super cute chalkboard signs for each grade level for the first and last day of school. She even let's you create your own chalkboard sign. You can download them all for free! 

On a side note, since it's back to school time, I'd like to remind all you mommies and teachers out there about using tea tree oil to prevent head lice. You can buy speciality shampoos with tea tree oil or add some to your existing shampoo. Since both of my girls and I have such long beautiful hair... head lice is a huge fear of mine. So if there is something I can do to help prevent it, I'll do it! I like to use Original Sprout products. 

Come and play along with us for the Back to School Challenge over at Cameo Creations.
