Pinterest finally got me. I needed a quick and easy idea for my daughter's teacher as her class is celebrating "Teacher Appreciation Week". The week begins with bringing the teacher a sweet treat, and since I only realized this at 11:00 pm on Sunday night... AND we only had lollipops ... my options were pretty limited.
Searching "Lollipop Card" on Pinterest will get you the tutorial for this ridiculously easy DIY craft.
Lollipop Valentine Card Craft
1. Take photo of child with hand in a fist — as if holding a lollipop.
2. Open in photo editing program and add text — make sure the text isn't covering lollipop.
3. Print photo.
4. Use scissors or an X-acto knife to make two holes: one on top and one on bottom of hand.
5. Insert lolliop to make it look as if child is holding it.
Voila! A Pinterest craft that cost less than a $1 and 10 minutes of your time to make 🙂

I saw this craft on stumble…isn't it awesome?
Rachel @ Following In My Shoes
I've always thought this is one of the cutest crafts ... but, SERIOUSLY? They *have* to bring in a Starbucks card AND a lottery ticket?
wow!

What basically pinterested me is the very concise and witty arranged info graphics that you can view and relearn anytime you remember about this info or tip.

That's very cute but Starbuck's....lottery ticket? Have to? Interesting.

Well, I suppose it's not a requirement-- but an email was sent saying that each child should bring something specific to the teacher on each day of the week. Yesterday was "something sweet", today was flowers, I can't remember Wednesday, but Thursday is a Starbucks GC, and Friday is a lotto ticket. I think it's a bit much, but she will be upset if she's the only one not bringing stuff in everyday.

VERY cute idea. I'm not too fond of the idea that they kids have to bring in the gift card and lottery ticket. My daughter would be the lone student who didn't participate I could tell you that right now.
Theresa
Cute idea!

We got my son's teacher a Visa GC and a froyoz GC (from the whole class). Then each day this week someone volunteered to take her lunch, and each day kids are bringing in a flower(s), so that by Friday she should have a big bouquet to fill the vase I took in. Not sure how many students in your daughter's class, but that's a lot of Starbucks GCs.

So cute and it looks super easy.

First, the card is super cute, and sweet. Second, I would be super annoyed if I were told my kid HAD to bring a lottery ticket. I don't buy lottery tickets for myself, and sure wouldn't buy it for someone else!
Louise
Those are really cute
Stefani
That is super cute! I might have to make one too!
Jenn

The Lakers players were out too early in the playoffs to get a rare long holidays, has been unwilling to calm Mr. Ci Shiping finally could not help but this time his Funny way to do a weather forecaster, for everyonethe weather report, used to seeing small fresh of you viewers do not know will not rough him scared.
Although this is a fun nature Funny, Ci Shiping Mr. or very seriously, despite the tone or expression is not so professional, but his efforts were apparently won the Toronto local TV station you the compliment of staff, so that local television stations gave him a sound very powerful title: "NBA weather experts."
In fact, Ci Shiping has also been known as a defensive specialist, but increase with age, his skill on the defensive gradually decreased. This season, he steals the Union has fallen to 55 rebounds a fall of 204. Scoring only 7.7 points, ranked 208 in the league.
Already 33 years old, Ci Shiping Mr. must take the whole heart on the basketball court, or he is afraid that never before vigorous state. As one of the important puzzles of the Lakers, if not next season to restore the efficient play, it may be abandoned by the team. However, this might be able to open the entertainment industry career, Mr. Ci Shiping.
Out album, now he has done a live member. Maybe he really can and then retired to try and entertainment-related work, this can be considered not to waste his innate entertainment cells.
