Handmade Note Cards for Teacher Appreciation Week

by Lindsay Ballard on April 29, 2015 1,622 Comments

Teacher Appreciation Week is next week!  Are you ready to celebrate the amazing teachers in your life?

Since I haven’t been working on my house in the last few months, I decided to just disappear from the blog for a while.  I didn’t want to post stuff just to post stuff, so I chose to post nothing at all.  And then, I decided I needed a really awesome project to be my jump back into the Blogosphere.  I think I found it:
