Sweet Cherry Tote

(front pockets)

This past week was Teacher Appreciation Week. As a class, we decided to give our teachers a small gift each day and at the end of the week, surprise them with a brunch and a big classroom gift. For my day, I wanted to make them something homemade and something to do with papercrafting. I decided to make Becky Robert's Tote-tally Awesome Tote. I made some adjustments but overall, I think it turned out "tote-tally" perfect.

I have seen these around but never got around to making one for myself.  I wanted to make this as a thank you gift to all my customers and as gifts for those who choose to book a workshop with me. Adorable isn't it? You can get the mini pens at Target (dollar section). You gotta love Target.
