Teacher Gifts

For my sons' teacher gifts this year, I decided to give flowers instead of some trinket they may never use or just throw away.  For the "main" teachers, the ones who have had the most contact with my sons this year, I purchased the most beautiful zinnias I have ever seen.  I was so inspired by the beauty of these flowers that I decided to make matching cards.  A few months ago, I purchased the Sure Cuts A Lot software to use with my Cricut, so I decided to Google "zinnia svg files" and I came up with the following link - http://cricutcard-iologist.blogspot.com/2010/03/zinnia.html.  This file was perfect for what I wanted to do!!  Here's what I came up with.  I think they turned out beautifully!!  I hope the teachers think so too!



Thanks for visiting!

  2. It looks like you picked a flower off the plant and glued it to a card! These are great!
