Teacher Appreciation Week!

Last week, I made 72 of these for my kids' middle school with a friend.
After that, I wanted a drink of lemonade....really badly!



Later, I made one more for E*'s elementary teacher...
You can too!

Supplies:
 
Glue Dots ©: 1" lines, Micro
Card stock
black patterned paper
scallop punch
circle punch
glitter or other embellishments
water bottle
drink flavoring
 
 
Send your favorite teacher a pick me up any time of the school year with this water bottle hanger.
 
1.  Print a sentiment onto a sheet of white card stock, near the top of the page.
2.  Cut your card stock into a 3 x 9 strip.
3.  Position the sentiment on the right. Score at 2", 6", 6 3/8" inches. 



4.  On the back of the card stock, stamp or decorate as you like. 



5.  Use Glue Dots © Micro to adhere a scallop on the 2 inch section of your tag.
6.  Then, use a circle punch to cut out a hole.
7.  Fold your strip on the score lines so that the sentiment is now on the front. Use Glue Dots © 1" glue lines along the side to create a pocket. 



8.  Embellish with glitter or other embellishments.
9  Add a couple of drink packets and a gift card to the pocket.
