Libby asked all of the PSA Design Team to send her cards using certain PSA stamp sets that were going to be featured on the program. I don't know if my cards made the cut or not - but here are the ones I made.

Birthday card: PSA Whimsy Cupcakes & Dare to Dream sets.

In Sympathy: Butterflies - PSA Cupcake, Sentiment is from Waltzingmouse - Asian Garden Additions.

I'm going to try and tape the show so I can see if any of my cards were featured since I'll be getting ready for work when the first segment is on and at work when the 2nd segment is on! If you see any of my cards on the program - let me know, ok???!!

Some Exciting News!

I'm thrilled to announce that I have been chosen to be a member of the newly created PSA Stamp Camp Design Team! You can read the announcement here on the stamp camp blog, and read more about PSA Essentials Peel & Stick stamps here.

I find myself on a team with a couple of my blogging buddies - Jennfer and Carly - as well as many new acquaintances. Libby is still announcing all the members over at her blog.

Here are the projects I submitted as my application for the design team and they were posted on the Stamp Camp Blog on October 5th to celebrate World's Teacher Day.

I made these magnets stored in a little tin using the set PSA - Super Star. The circles are mounted to a magnet sheet (I used my Krylon Machine with the magnet/laminate cartridge) so these can be used to hold those 'ever so special' school papers that come home every day on your fridge for all to see!

I even stamped on the twill I adhered around the box. The tin is from Papertrey Ink.

For my second teacher project I decorated a purchased First Aid kit that I got at the Dollar Store.

I used the PSA set Hello Kitty - School Days for the image - the heart circle framing is from the PSA set - UBU Dress Up. I used my Brother Label maker for the sentiments, added some papers to cover the label and tied a bow!

Here's what came in my little kit. Perfect for teacher to have on hand for all those little 'boo boos' that happen during the school day.

My last project was decorating a purchased note pad. I got this on sale at Staples for $1.oo (!) It already had all the M&M's printed on the cover.

Again - I used the PSA Hello Kitty School Days set. (the sentiment is Papertrey Ink)

So there you have it - some easy, fun gifts for teacher!

You can buy PSA stamps on line or at stores near you .

Thanks for stopping by today - I hope you are having Columbus Day off tomorrow - I do (Yippee!) - and I know there will be some extra stamping going on in my craft room!!! How about you???
