The first is a card I created. I tied the lip balm on by punching two holes through the card and tying it with twine. I also ran a strip of tape along the back of the lip balm just to help support the weight.
Next I took a bag one of the cute little bags from Club Scrap and added the saying "Happy First Day! Looking forward to a great years! From: " by printing on white cardstock. This could be filled with small things for the teacher like candy, tea bags, pencils, erasers, etc.
Here is what I always called an apple pie box, but I think they are really called puffy boxes. I found a template for the puffy box here.
I used a piece of paper from the Club Scrap Sunflower kit, decorated it simply by adding a cutout and ribbon from the kit. On the journal card I added Sunflowers Sparkle Stickers, to add more shine!
To make the this is cut a piece of cardboard 6 1/2 x 6 1/2, scored from the top at 1/2 inch and 2 inches. At the bottom I scored 1/4. The top I fold backwards to make it stand up a little and the bottom score is folded forward to hold a pen. The paper I made 6 1/2 x 7 and scored the top the same but the is scored at 3/4. The extra paper at the bottom can be trimmed or folded backwards. You can't see it in the above picture, but I added washi tape on the bottom fold for extra support, and it looks pretty!
