DIY Sweetest Teacher Gift Directions

1.  Download the template file by CLICKING HERE.  You can put it in Word or a program of your choice to size and print.  You can even add another text layer with a personalized teacher's name, if you want.  If you'd rather just download and print, you can download the PDF version HERE (make sure you have PDF reading software on your device!). Whichever image you choose, you will need to FLIP the image before saving and printing (like a mirror image).
