Welcome Cards for Students

Next week the new class lists will be published at my school.  This is a big deal for our students.....they have been waiting all summer to find out who will be their new teacher.

I like to welcome my students with a little card in the mail as well.  I try my best to time it so they get the card on the same day as the list posting on the school website.

Each year my card is a little different depending on my theme, this year my plan was simple: an owl in a tree.

Using my silhouette machine
btw......i love this machine
I cut out this tree shape

Here are my supplies all ready to start the project :)  I like to have everything ready before I start.

if you want a copy of the pdf of the HOOT labels click on the picture

If you decide to make your own inside of the card I made it on Word.  It took me a while to line up the box correctly.

When I mail these cards out to the children I will add a little page of owl stickers that I found at the Learning Shop as well.   Just a little goodie to make each child smile. :)

  2. You are lucky to get your class list early. At our school it's a deep dark secret. I often wonder why???

  3. A silhouette!! I have been considering this machine for a while now, but I'm nervous, I keep seeing so much about the Cricut. Convince me Sue! :)
