Since "The Gingerbread Man" is my classroom's theme this school year, I decided to make a tag inspired by him for this week's "Fairy Tales" theme.
I used a photograph of the sunbathing gingerbread couple tags that I made for the "Summer Holiday" theme in July, to make a welcome back poster for my classroom door. Therefore, this new tag will be great for next month's poster. I began by designing outfits using K&Company papers for a couple of gingerbread figures that I cut with my Tim Holtz die. Next, I designed the backgrounds for my tags using Martha Stewart papers, glitter, and an airplane stamp, as well as reinforcers, a Dymo labeler, a button, pin, jute twine, and a micron pen. I hand lettered my own version of the Gingerbread Man's classic rhyme to convey to my gifted and talented students that I have great expectations for their future.
Have a blessed weekend, everyone!
Love your cute Gingerbread men, great tag! I got some gingerbread man buttons recently, they are sweet, too. Valerie
