Martha they are so cute. The look like they were professionally done.

desertmom · **sure**

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Good instructions, but do you REALLY think I'm going to do it? NOT! I have no visual creativeness whatsoever...just know what I like. I'm one of those who invested in my friend's scrapbooking business, then never put one together. Went to the little parties and got frustrated by how plain mine looked compared to theirs. What is inside, just blank notepaper, or did you personalize that, also?

The tote...is like the one I posted a template for the other day...and the envelopes were purchased at the store...I just cut a flap off of one to use as a template to cut flaps out of matching paper to glue over the already existing flap of the regular invitation envelopes. It really took very little brain work. The whole set was finished within an hour!!

You said you posted a template for the tote the other day. I can't find it can you help me with this? I really like the idea of making these for the teachers. My ds has 2 teachers and my dd has 1 teacher and 1 helper. So I think that this would me a neat idea to make for them.

desertmom...the inside of the cards is just plain for them to write whatever they wish.

Here is another set I made today. I made this for my Mom to give her secret pal at work.
