Back to school means back to work for me and my husband and yes, I feel all of the same jitters that the kids do! I love getting back into a routine and meeting my new students... It's all very exciting.
This year I have a goal: USE MY PLANNER!
I've had a planner for the past two years and I always have great intentions, but I never follow through. I am hoping that by making my planner more teacher-friendly I will use it on a daily basis...
To start the year off I added a bunch of inspirational words from the Say It With Stickers: Teacher sheet.
To hold my place in the planner I created a really easy bookmark: sticker, patterned paper, cardstock and some twine...
I made the twine stick out a bit so when the planner's closed I can quickly find my spot:
SRM Products Used:
Other Supplies:
Planner: Paper Source
Can you believe it's the end of April?? The end of the school year approaches and that freaks me out!!
So much to do and so little time, but today, I got a head-start! I like to make special thank you cards for my admin team (principal and the VPs) because they always go above-and-beyond their job descriptions and deserve my unending praise...
Brainstorming for this card went something like this:
- teacher..... CHALKBOARD
- colours? ....... PRIMARY
- stamps?....... WHATEVER IS NEW!!
So yah... Not too 'inspired' but this is one of my favourite cards of all time. I can't wait to give it away!!
Well how are you all doing today? If you follow me on Facebook or Instagram you know that I had a wonderful Mother's Day and got a beautiful Pandora ring from my son/husband. I am spoiled as it is, but it was nice to get spoiled with jewellery - I kind of love all things bling A LOT!
So if you are local you may have noticed that I'm not teaching at Clipper Street anymore. It was a hard decision to make, but it allows me to open so many doors to stores local and far away because I no longer have an exclusivity-clause!

| This is a class that I wasn't able to finish teaching and would love to offer more classes!! |
I set up a newsletter that will help to keep you in the loop about all of my classes (because I won't always talk about them on the blog as my audience is primarily NOT from around here) and I invite you to subscribe. If you are interested in hosting me to teach a class, by all means, contact me and we'll talk!!
