Teacher Gift for the Holidays

This time of year there's always chatter about what gift to give to the classroom teachers. As the "class mom" for my daughter this year, I collected money from all the kids in the class so they could give the teacher a collaborative gift. However, I wanted to give a little "extra" to the teacher without spending a lot of money. So, this year I altered the good old clipboard! I am sure many of you have done this before, but they always make for such an adorable gift. The clipboard I altered for my daughter's Kindergarten teacher still remains on the wall, hanging in her classroom... 4 years later! :)

The supplies cost next to nothing! I purchased the clipboard from Office Max for $1.50. The reason I loved this one was because it is almost the exact color of Kraft cardstock...my favorite! :) All the product was from my stash! I used some scraps from The Scraproom's September Kit as well as their calendar stamp...one of my all time favorites I might add! :)






This project is so simple, so easy and so cost effective! Most of all...You can't go wrong be creating it because it is always a hit with the teachers!

btw...the title is part of a quote so if anyone knows who's original quote it is, I would like to give them credit! :)

Thanks!
