{Back to School} Let's Roll into School Teacher Gift with Tag Printable

For this year's "Meet the Teacher" night I wanted to create a special gift for Spencer's Kindergarten teacher.  I really like to personalize my gifts so that they can keep them for years to come.  This is what I came up with this year.  Each side is decorated in a school themed image.  I love "play on words" so I created the Let's Roll into School tag because I was filling the jar with Tootsie Rolls.  ☺



I found this square glass jar at Dollar Tree.  I really liked the size and thought of so many ways to decorate it.  Decisions! Decisions!

Here is my supplies.


I wrapped Washi Tape around the outside of my glass jar. 
Works WONDERFUL!


To decorate the outside of the jar ~ I decided to cut out vinyl images on my Cricut and layered them on each side of the glass jar. 
Apple & School Bus ~ Doodlecharms by Cricut
ABC ~ Recess Lite by Cricut
Chalkboard ~ George and Basic Shapes by Cricut
(I used 2 rounded rectangles making one a little smaller to fit inside)

Side 1 with Chalkboard
Side 2 with Apple
Side 3 with School Bus -- personalized with School Name!
Check out my "blingy" hubcaps - (love)
Side 4 - ABC letters
I filled a plastic treat bag with yummy Tootsie Rolls and tied various ribbons to close the top.


Here is the tag I created to go along with the gift.   I attached it to the bag of tootsie rolls using red & white twine.

Feel free to download this free tag and use it for yourself.

{Personal use only please} 

Right click and save as to your computer.  
Insert into a word document or other source and print your tag.
I hope you've enjoyed today's project and thank you so much for your comments.  

♥Tracy
