My first PTO Project.

My son goes to preschool at the local elementary school.  Today is their annual "grand event", and a neighbor on the PTO asked me to help out with a project.  They were looking for a way to display photos taken during the event, that the students can take home.  Here is what I made


The front measures 4.5 x 6.5.  This is a folded card with slits on the inside to insert a photo.  The paw print is cut out (negative space) and the phrase was stamped on using CTMH alpha stamps.  With a bit of help from my cricut and THE PROGRAM THAT SHALL NOT BE NAMED-  hehehe...I was able to create a perfect custom photocard.  The card is pretty simple but the real challenge was quantity.  I have completed 226 of these so far, and I am still waiting on the final count from the PTO on how many they will need based on the event.  I think I have a long weekend ahead of me.
