Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss!

Oh what fun.  A week of Dr. Seuss at school.  On my volunteer day, we made truffula trees out of licorice and cotton candy...yummy, sticky goodness.  The kindergarteners made them all by themselves--very cute.  To commemorate the day, I made these little cards to go with their edible craft.  

Dr. Seuss- The Lorax

 When I get a moment, I will upload the pdf for the quote.  I used tear apart post card sheets.  It's what I had on hand.  Each card is 4"x5.5". The truffula stem is cut out of printed scrapbook paper and the fluffy tree is ripped from mulberry paper.  If your unfamiliar with this kind of paper, you can normally find it at craft stores in the scrapbooking aisle.  

I hot glued a clear pocket and put 4-6 flower seeds inside.  Now, clear pockets can be a little pricey, especially if you need 31 like I did.  My solution--I have oodles of baseball card pockets so I just cut one of the sides in half, made a little flap of the other side, folded and tucked it inside and voilá, instant clear pocket. 

Thank you Dr. Seuss!  Because just sometimes, double meanings can be wonderful!
