Dozen Sharpened Pencils

Howdy Friends! I'm a bit late in posting today, but I've been consumed with laundry and all that goes with it today! I've had a fun time getting something for my son's grade 1 teacher too...A Dozen Sharpened Pencils.
I did my best to not have any of the flowers the same, so there are 12 different flowered pencils in this cute bucket! I found the bucket at target yesterday in the dollar (or let's be honest, 10$ spot) spot. I uesd the Sunny Day Simply Scrappin' Kit for my paper/color selection and fun! I used a bunch of different items on the flowers. The stamps I used were from the Petal Pizazz stamp set. I used my Flower Layers BigZ die and My Big Shot for several flowers. I used my Cuttlebug Swiss Dots folder for several flowers. I uesd a lot of brads, some buttons, some rhinestones, and even some acrylic and felt flowers too. I used my trusty circle punches for a lot of the fun, and my Circle Scissor came to my aid too...I LOVE that thing!!



I hope you have a great day! I'm excited for my son to give this little dozen flowers to his teacher...he love giving fun gifts! And let's be honest again, I sincerely enjoy sending gifts to my children's teachers!
Thanks for dropping by! Make it a great one!!
