Notecard set for a teacher.

June 2nd, 2009

I made a set of 4 notecards for my daughter’s 3rd grade teacher as an end-of-the year gift this weekend.  They had grown monarch butterflies from larvae last fall and had take lots of photos with the class camera, so I bought a few and cropped them down, printed out the butterfly onto transparency film, cut it out, and applied Stickles to the back of the butterfly.  On one of them I experimented with orange alcohol ink.  I am actually pretty pleased with how these came out.  I used different flowers and different Stickles (some orange and some white) and the antennae all ended up different so each card is just a little it different from the others, and I like that too.

These might make nice notecards for a teacher’s Christmas gift this year.  I think I may put some sets of these in my etsy shop for sale.  What do you think?
