Here's a comparison of the original backpack from SCS & this one:
Here are a couple more peeks of it:
The backpack is 7 3/4" tall, 6 1/2" wide, & 3 1/4" deep. It also has a functional pocket on the front.
Here's a peek of what's inside:
Here's another little treat you may have noticed:
Every teacher needs a pencil- especially if it's made of... CANDY!
I saw this cuuuute idea in this month's Creating Keepsakes mag (while I
was standing in line at the store) & thought it would be the
*perfect* addition to my back pack :) and best of all it's super easy to
make! They used Rolos but I used Mentos instead (less temptation ;). I
*had* a video tut for you, but You Tube & I are not playing nicely
right now :( grrrrrr.
Here are the written directions for now:
1) Cut yellow CS at 3 1/2" x 4 1/2" Use scoring tool to score lines lengthwise to give it a more realistic look.
2) Use decorative scissors (pinking edge) on one short end & wrap CS
around candy. Use very strong adhesive to secure it. (Scor-tape)
3) To create the eraser top, cut a strip of pink CS at 3/8" x 3 1/2"
& wrap at the top of pencil. use a circle punch to punch a circle to
cover the candy wrapper at the top of the pencil. The 3/4" punch worked
for me.
4) Adhere a strip of silver foil CS (or aluminum foil) where the yellow & pink CS meet.
5) For the pencil point, use glue dots to adhere a Hershey kiss.
This really was so easy & fun to make! I also made a crayon following the same basic steps.
