The first day of school.
Posted by Michelle on August 28th, 2012 . Filed under: Design Team Work, Echo Park Paper, School, Whisker Graphics .{sigh} The first day of school is today. My littles are growing up. Nothing drives that home more than the first day of school each year.
I packaged up some little first day of school surprises for the kids and tucked them in to the snack pouch on their backpacks. Do you remember when you were a kid loving those pens that you could change the colors on? I never had one – always wanted one! I was so excited when I saw these at Walmart and was able to pair with a coupon and a doubler and score these for super cheap 😉
I used some Honeycomb Middy Bitty Bags, embellished with a school patterned paper collection from Echo Park Paper, and then tied off with some coordinating Divine Twine.
And off they go to learn and grow….
