All In The Family.....A Gift for Mrs Williams

Hello and good morning.....I am a wee bit bleary eyed this morning, I was crafting until the small hours (2am to be precise)! It was all for a worthy cause....A special leaving present for Mrs Williams, Isabel's nursery class Teaching assistant. She is leaving to go to college to do teacher training and I know she is going to be greatly missed by all the children,Parents and staff.
I wanted to give her a keepsake....something to remind her of the pupils in the nursery class.
I had spotted on the web this frame and thought it was a fab idea to case.
I used the "All in the Family" stamp set. 
This is a wonderful 28 piece stamp set that you can mix and match the different images....I love the fact it also has a cat and dog image too.
There are only 7 pupils in the nursery class (the joys of living in a small village) it was very easy to pick out the images to suit each child.
I stamped the Images in Black stazon onto very vanilla cardstock and then used my watercolour pen to colour the images. The text was stamped using the "Letter It" and "Number It" sets. I sponged a little background and added some punch Itty bitty flowers to add some more colour.
(The frame was Ribba from Ikea....excellent for Stampin up 3d projects)
This is how it turned out.
 
I also stamped a matching Canvas bag...for Miss Hughes (an idea I cased from my lovely Downline Ruth (she is a very talented Photographer and has recently been introduced to the joys of Stampin up and cardmaking check out her Facebook page Here)
and I also made some "Post it note" holders and gift wrapped (SU style) some chocolate...then forgot to take photographs...Sorry!!!
 I did manage to find a photograph of the cards I made......way back in march (stamp set Fruit and Flowers SU spring Mini)

Isabel went armed with her gifts this morning...I need to collect her soon and then home for SIX weeks!!!! oh my!!
Thankyou for stopping by x
