Challenge #23 Back to School Reminder

If you're like us....you are always looking for new ideas to make a little "something" school related for a teacher, son/daughter, relative, or child's friend. Here's a little inspiration from Team Fumi who has come together to create some wonderful projects with this week's Back to School Challenge in mind...all of which are adorable and useful items. 

 

*********************** 

Kathy made a card using Fumi with Messenger Bag which would be perfect for welcoming a new teacher or sending a note of appreciation, and what college student wouldn't love receiving this in their mailbox?!

 

 

 Both students and teachers would enjoy planning their day using this adorable planner made by Melissa, using Fumi with Bear Backpack 

 

 

Sheena  has made the most adorable picture frame message board using both Fumi with Messenger Bag and Yumi with Book Bag.

"You use a white board marker or water-soluble marker to write on the frame in the areas that are blocked out for messages. And then you can easily wipe off the message or reminder after it has served it's usefulness."

 

Here is Blankina's awesome tag using Yumi with Book! This could work double time as a bookmark and/or hang tag on a backpack.  

 

Audrey used Yumi with Book to make this adorable card which is perfect for any aged student, and how cute would this be tucked inside a lunch box?!

 

  Denice's tag using Fumi with Messenger Bag could be a fabulous door hanger or key holder. 

***********************
We hope you agree the entire Team Fumi should get an A+ this week...or at least a gold star!! For more details on each of these cards/projects please visit the DT's individual blogs by clicking on their names.
