Backpack Notes.
Posted by Michelle on August 23rd, 2011 . Filed under: Cards, Design Team Work, Glitz Design, Papertrey Ink, School .I can’t believe school is starting up again just one week from today. My kiddies will be starting 2nd and 4th grade. I know it sounds cliche’, but where does the time go? I mean really. We were just practicing how to spell “cat-hat-rat” and now we’re writing big words like “everything” in cursive. Amazing.
Today I’m sharing some little backpack notes I made for my kids. I used the lunchbox note die from Papertrey Ink to cut out these cute lil’ cards. We’ll get their backpacks ready together the night before, and then I’ll tuck these in to their snack pockets where they’ll be sure to find them and be reminded that mom and dad are thinking about them as they embark on this new year.

Adorable!! The patterned paper is so unique and I love how you’ve highlighted your children’s grade level on each little note card.

Awww, I love that you put notes in your kids’ backpacks! I wonder what my son would think if I did that? I’m gonna try, lol. And school here – they are now substituting “typing” for “cursive”. What?! Are we that much into technology that we don’t need to learn handwriting/script?
