Favorite teachers who challenge and inspire us, shopping for new school supplies, first day of school photos on the front porch, bouquets of sharpened pencils *wink*…..these are all things that bring a smile to our faces when we think of back to school. And with that comes thinking of ways to bless the special teachers in our lives, the ones who pour so much of themselves into our children. Whether making a sweet card, gift tag or treat item, we've got lots of teacher-themed inspiration for you today!
A fresh new collection of images to create cards & gifts for the special teachers that help to shape our future. The two angled banner halves ("Teachers" and "Open Minds…") can fit together and be stamped in two different colors. You can also separate them slightly and add the pencil, ruler or alphabet banner between the two halves for a stylish alternative. There is an arrow/chevron border builder that can be used above and below the assembled banner or create unique backgrounds. A "name badge" that coordinates with the previously released Fillable Frames #7 die is a versatile component as well. You can interchange sentiments within it from this and other sets.
The Details:
- Teach & Inspire will be available for purchase on August 15th.
- It will retail for $24.
- Teach & Inspire contains a total of 25 images. The ruler & pencil each measure 2-3/4" x 1/4". The lined notebook border & alphabet border each measure 2-7/8" x 1/4". The name badge image measures 2-3/8" x 1-1/4". The "Teach, Inspire, Encourage, Mentor" sentiment measures 2-1/8" x 1", The assembled tree measures 1-5/8" x 2". The "From little acorns…" sentiment measures 1-7/8" x 3/4". The assembled Teachers/Open Minds banner measures 2-1/8" x 1-3/4". The scrolled "Thank You" measures 1-1/4" x 3/8". The "for all you've done this year." sentiment measures 1-1/8" x 3/8".
Being released to coordinate with the previously released Teacher's Apple stamp set, the apples in this die collection also coordinate with the apple in the new Teach & Inspire set for maximum design options!
The Details:
- Teacher's Apple die collection will be available for purchase on August 15th.
- It will retail for $5.
- Teacher's Apple die collection contains a total of 2 dies. They measure 1-1/4" x 1-1/4"(A), 1-1/2" x 1-5/8"(B).
Now that I've made all of the formal introductions, let's get onto the projects!
For my first card I wanted to use untraditional colors to kind of shake things up a little bit. I paired up Spring Moss, Aqua Mist, Blueberry Sky and Vintage Cream. I wanted to point out the apple image here. The new Teach & Inspire set features a new apple that will coordinate with the one found in the original Teacher's Apple stamp set. This means the new apple dies will coordinate with both sets! I stamped the apple in Aqua Mist & Classic Kraft. The leaf was added in Spring Moss.
The sentiment was first stamped in Charcoal Palette ink onto the Vintage Cream Mat Stack 3 base. I then stamped it a second time on scrap cardstock in Blueberry Sky ink. I cut the banner out with scissors and adhered it on top of that portion of the original sentiment with foam tape. I just LOVE this sentiment and know I will get tons of use out of it.
I die-cut some accents with the Fancy Flourishes dies from Spring Moss cardstock and stamped them with the coordinating images in Spring Moss ink. I tucked them either side of the focal point and added Blueberry Sky buttons tied with Vintage Cream twine.
The card front was matted with polka dotted paper from Library Ledger paper pad and Blueberry Sky Pattern Pack (leaves). Everything is adhered to a Spring Moss card base.
My next project uses the Block Alphabet dies in a super fun way to create an interesting background.
For the focal point, I stamped the tree trunk in Dark Chocolate and the leaves in Simply Chartreuse. I stamped the little apple on a scrap of cardstock in Pure Poppy and cut it out with scissors, adhering it in place on the tree. I added the sentiment underneath in True Black (quite possibly another one of my favorites from this set!) I stamped the ruler image onto Classic Kraft cardstock with True Black ink and trimmed it into a tiny border. Also added a bit of Simply Chartreuse stripes paper underneath it, trimmed with pinking shears.
For the background, I started with a large piece of Pure Poppy cardstock and die-cut the wired Block Alphabet dies from it twice. I trimmed it down to suit my needs, then backed the piece with Pure Poppy gingham paper. I love the fun texture this adds to the project.
I wrapped the card with Pure Poppy Baker's Twine and finished it with a bow. Everything was adhered to a Classic Kraft card base.
This project gives a nice modern twist to traditional teacher projects and can be appropriate for a male or female recipient. I started by drawing a light pencil line down the center of my white cardstock and stamping the top three chevron arrows in Summer Sunrise, Canyon Clay & Autumn Rose.
I then stamped onto separate cardstock the two halves of the label/sentiment block in Scarlet Jewel & Dark Chocolate and cut them out with a craft knife and ruler. I figured out where I wanted them to be placed and drew a light pencil mark where I wanted the chevron arrows to start up again. This time I added them pointing in the opposite direction using Ocean Tides, Ripe Avocado & Charcoal Palette ink.
I stamped the ruler & pencil images onto Classic Kraft cardstock, adding a bit of color to the pencil with Copic Markers then cut them out. I added them at opposite diagonals under and on top of the assembled banner.
For my last project today I had an idea to create some custom background paper and the rest of the design just evolved from there!
I started by stamping the large dot outline background strip from Polka Dot Basics in Fine Linen onto Vintage Cream cardstock. I then added small apples from Teach & Inspire in multiple colors within the open circles. I used Melon Berry, Berry Sorbet, Summer Sunrise & Hibiscus Burst. I then went back in and added the leaves with Simply Chartreuse. In between the apple circles I added the number circles from Gratitude Journal in all of the same colors. I think this is just the PERFECT background for a teacher project!
I die-cut the Fillable Frames #7 die from Vintage Cream and stamped it with the fun coordinating name tag image from Teach & Inspire using Berry Sorbet ink. I added the sentiment within it using True Black. I matted the name tag with Summer Sunrise cardstock die-cut with Fillable Frames #5. I added a Simply Chartreuse strip stamped with borders from Teach & Inspire, adding loops at either side for more visual interest. Three Simply Chartreuse buttons flank the top. Everything is attached to a Melon Berry card base.

Fubulous products! I am a teacher and I would love to recieve something that beautiful.
Super cute set…and just in time for back to school projects for the teachers….fun~fun!!
Fabulous projects. I especially liked the background paper you made and your use of the alphabet dies.
Love the way this new teacher set coordinates with with the older set. Having new dies that work with both sets is brilliant. Gorgeous samples as always.
This is set is perfect for teacher gifts and back-to-school layouts! I especially love the background paper you created on the Wonderful Year card – the colors are non-traditional yet perfect!
The first day of school is right around the corner… much to my son’s dismay! Ah the lazy days of summer! π
The last thing on the back-to-school list is a teacher gift. These stamps & dies are just in time!
Love the projects that were done with this set!! Make me wish my kids were not grown, so I could make some of the beautiful gift set shown.
I really love the variety of border strips, and the sentiments are so thoughtful. And I’m so happy to see that the apple die coordinates with Teacher’s Apple – a great two-for-one!
I teach my kids at home, but these sets are so inspiring. Such beautiful work by the dt π
What a great day for teachers. I so remember some of my teachers! What inspired projects today.
While I don’t have any need for teacher gifts, I see tons of background building elements in these sets. So much amazing inspiration! Love all of the design teams pieces.
I’m so in LOVE LOVE LOVE with this set. The DT did an amazing job showcasing it! AWESOME!

These are fabulous!!!
Love these! We have a rising kindergartner this year, so we could really use these!
I remember quite a few teachers from my school days 27 plus years ago. I think this is a great set. Teachers do a difficult job and it is great to encourage them (and perhaps teacher’s assistants/aides or SSOs as we call them in Australia).
Wow, what a great idea. So many possibilities for teacher gifts.
As a teacher I love all things with this theme. This is no exception!

The ruler and pencil are so much fun, I love them!
Wonderful cards! I have a Cricut with about 30 font cartridges, and I’m totally pining for those block alphabet dies lol.

I have 2 daughters who are teachers and I know they would appreciate the thoughtfulness of a beginning of the year card.
Awesome projects! I am the mother of a son with autism. I make many gifts/cards for teachers, therapists of speech, occupational, physical to name a few. I definitely could make use of this!
What a beautiful new set with great sentiments! I love your background you stamped with the circles and numbers!
So many amazing little details in this set…wonderfully put together!
What a fun, inspiring post! Looking forward to having this set in my stash π
It’s great to have a set that shows an appreciation for those hard-working, dedicated teachers! What teacher wouldn’t love any of the projects that were featured today!?
We have ‘Meet the teacher’ night tonight so I LOVE the great teacher ideas. It will also be so much fun to have a new teacher set, my Teacher’s Apple set has been well loved.
Love this! I don’t have any teacher stamps in my collection yet! Woo hoo! Perhaps I can justify it guilt free! π
I love the colors you choose for your first card. This is a fun set to have if you have teachers in your life.
I never get tired of teacher themed sets. Each one seems better than the last. I love making little gifts for my son’s teachers and also gifts for teacher appreciation week at his school.
What a great post of ideas and inspiration. teacher’s Apple is one of my all time favorites and thrilled to see the dies!
I am so excited about the die for the Teacher’s Apple set! I make teacher treats throughout the year and this release just made my morning.
These are all wonderful! As a former teacher I can say that I would have loved to have recieved any one of these cards! You and your team have knocked another one out of the park!
LOVE the apple stamp and die! Perfect for the Fall harvest too!
I absolutely love the cheveron arrows in Teach & Inspire, they could be used for so much more then school projects!!
Wow, this is a great set, love what you did to make the background on one of the cards.

Love all the ideas with this teacher stamp set and dies! Very creative!
This set is very cute. Love the “apples & numbers” background.
Love the images in this set! The colours in your cards are beautiful!

Wow! What a versatile set! I’m loving the chevrons and all the little says with the banners! Thanks ladies!
This is by far the cutest and most versatile teacher’s set I’ve ever seen!!! So many possibilities, even for some non teacher projects. All the projects today were amazing!!!
Beautiful creations today – I especially liked the variety of color combinations. A real feast for the eyes!
What a great set. My daughter is a teacher and I can that I could get great usage from this set.
I’m hoping to get this set quickly so I can make something for all our teachers for the first day of school! Love all the great ideas that the design team has given us….my head is brimming with projects!
Perfect teacher cards! I love the new sentiments and how it’s easy to modify the look of each card.
All of the wonderful projects would make any teacher feel loved and appreciated! I taught elementary school for 29 years, and my older son is a Social Studies/Geography teacher, so these projects and stamp sets are very meaningful to me! Thank you so much!!!
Love your cards!! Awesome!! This is such a fantastic set!!
It’s been 30+ years since my last “first day of school” but I still love new school supplies and new “school” clothes! I think I’ll start by shopping on the 15th
Wish I had this set when my kids were younger!! Great set and what a wonderful way to honor the hard work our childrens teachers put forth.
All of the teacher components are wonderful and long awaited; you guys continue to amaze and wow the masses with your products!!
My favorite release yet. I love making teacher gifts. Can’t wait to order this!!

Wonderful teacher ideas!!! Great sets!!
Wonderful new set and great inspiration projects!
What a great set to use for teacher gifts. I love the little ruler image.
What a fantastic set. This might be the push I have been waiting for to get the first Teacher’s Apple stamp set.
I love the images in this set. They are so classic. I love classic. And I love, love, love the apple die. I totally want that!!
This is something I just have to have. As a PTA president I am always looking for new ideas for making things for our teachers!
WOW! Love this. And the acorns into oaks saying is perfect – at my local school the reception class is called Acorns, and then the children move into Oaks. Co-ordinating dies are always a bonus. Can’t wait!
I so wish I had this set in my hands right now! Tonight my kids have their school ice cream social and then school starts on Thursday! Can’t wait to add this set and matching die (thank you) to my stamping arsenal.
Linda

This is a great set. You and the team had great ideas to showcase it. Thanks for the contest.
Love the new teacher stamp set. I was a teacher and would have loved a card or cookie jar(I was always hungry by breaktime) at the beginning of the year. I used to leave a note for each child in their new tray and loved seeing their faces when they found them.
I’m in love with the new teacher set……can’t wait to start making some projects!
Love the Teacher and Inspire set, they are all amazing. Just a suggestion for later on… create a additions stamp set for Coaches.
Very cute new stamps and dies. My mind is already full of ideas for using them. I’m cleaning off my craft table now so I can be ready to play.
What a way to make the teacher feel special. These sets are so cute.
My daughter will be doing her student teaching this September and I think this is a set she needs. I can see lots of little projects for her. Love the posts today.
This will be my daughter’s first year in school, and I can’t wait to make something for her teacher with this set!

Love these teacher inspirations! I’m going to make for the grandkids to give to teachers or for mom to write a note. hugs.
These teacher projects are very nicely done.
My sister is a teacher and I know how much she appreciates home made cards from her kids! These are awesome!! Thanks for designing such fabulous stuff!
Love what everyone has created. Cool color combinations and great use of different elements to showcase this set. Especially the blank alphabet to reveal the red gingham underneath; always a fan of red gingham.
What wonderful creations I’m not associated with any school theme (no kids), but I am always in awe of teachers. They do put so much time into kids and we need every single one of them! Tks for sharing such creation projects for such great people!
I love the new teacher stamp set…and I am so glad the dies go with Teacher’s Apple…that is another favorite of mine!!!! I can’t wait to get this and get started on my teacher projects…
What a great set!! I love the sentiments that are included!!
Oh, these are just wonderful. I wish I knew some teachers so I could send them one of these cards!
Yes! Something for the teachers!!! So awesome! And extremely versatile too! π

Nice ideas for showing appreciation for your child’s teachers.
I really like the sentiments I saw today – brought tears to my eyes. It made me miss the teaching profession a bit while I’m raising my family.
The project are amazing as always, just great ideas for teacher gifts!
Such a great set for back-to-school and teacher gift projects. I love how Jess showed it doesn’t have to be for school teachers only.
Amazing !..what a collection!
Another great teacher set Nichole. This set contains so many versatile elements. Can’t wait to give it a try.
Great sets! While I don’t have any kiddos, I love this set for my teacher friends and also to make gift sets for my friends with kids. I’m sure they’d appreciate these!
Adding this one to the collection a classic PTI must have

Cute, Cute, Cute! Almost makes me wish I were still teaching the young’uns (or had some…). I do love some of these images, though, and I am SURE they will make their way to my cards!
Everything is just SO cute!! It makes me wish my grown children were still in school! I especially love the color combinations you all used. Hmmm, Spring Moss, Aqua Mist and Blueberry sky = fabulous!
I love back-to-school time. This set provides everyting needed to thank all the teachers in our lives
Wow! This is a must have set for anyone with school age kids. I wonder if your kids teachers read your blog and hope that one of your amazing projects is coming their way?
Any teacher would love to get a card with this stamp collection.
Great projects! Some really nice elements in that teacher set.
Wow, this stamp set looks like it has a lot of fun elements in it! Love the fresh take on this theme.
Great new teacher set. This set would get a ton of use. Thank you.
I love the little acorn/mighty oak sentiment…and that card is just beautiful! A card like this would make any teacher’s day brighter!
How nice to see products and projects for teachers. Papertrey stays at the front of the class once again!
Wow, as a teacher I love this set! I can think of all kinds of uses for my classroom and appreciate your appreciation!
I think there can never be enough ideas for teacher appreciation gifts and this set is fun and creative. I really like the background you made with the apples and gratitude journal numbers. I’m gonna have to see if i can come up with something similar since my son is going back to school tomorrow. I love the images and wonderful sentiments!
Another great release! These stamps and dies would make super great cards and projects for teacher gifts. Thanks!
Love all the ideas from the design team. Really cool products!
From start to finish today’s projects truly inspire me! My fav of the day is your background design. Holy cow, Nichole it is gorgeous!
These sets remind me of the old school days……….awesome designs !
I love these stamps. They look amazing.
Love that! What great fun for teacher gifts!
Amazing and inspiring projects! I’m my children’s teacher, but there are many adults who serve as role models for them so I could easily use these stamps!
This is a great set!
As a teacher, you know this set would be a wonderful addition to my collection – I just love those little apples and pencils! Fabulous projects from everyone too!
What a beautiful set ! Great cards and lots of inspiration today.
Teach and Inspire will be a great stamp set to use throughout the school year — and for Sunday School also! I love the little apple die that goes along with it.
Awesome projects, and such a great set!! Sure to become a classic, as we all need to show teachers appreciation… π
As a preschool teacher and a parent of three who loves making gifts for my kids’ teachers, today’s posts are truly inspiring and I love the new set and die.
Well, my oldest starts public school in two weeks. So I have a feeling I’ll start needing things like this real soon…
You couldn’t debut this set at a more appropriate time! We are in full school preparation, and the most important, but often overlooked item is a simple teacher appreciation token. Thank you for the wonderful inspiration!!
Beautiful work, love the pencil stamps!!
All of the projects are simply awesome! I love this set and can’t wait to create teacher gifts as well as school layouts with these stamps!
What an adorable set. I would make cards for all of my son’s teacher’s with this. I especially love the first card that you created. The colors are awesome for male or female teachers and I LOVE, LOVE the way you added the flourishes tucked under the buttons. Will definitely be trying that one.
These will work for so many different occasions. They are very inspiring.

I just recently found your blog and have already ordered some of your products. I love the inspirational photos as well as the cards. The samples from the teacher set are beautiful and I wish I had kids/teachers to make them for.
This is such a fun set for teacher cards. Think I will make some, so my grandchildren can use them.
Fabulous teacher themed inspiration. Love the little apples and the sayings.
Great projects. Love this release as always.
Love the ruler and the pencil and all the teacher elements! Thanks again for the great ideas and the inspiration.
What a great set! My children are all grown, but my grandchildren will be starting school soon…so this would be perfect. Love all the projects as

Great Designs!
I especially like the “Teacher” name tag!
What a fun set for teachers and teacher cards!
I really love the chevron card, and it is so trendy and the colors are beautiful.
Those little apples are adorable!!
This is one set I have been looking forward to. I love to give teachers fun gifts throughout the year for all their hard work.
Too Bad I am not teaching any more! Wait a minute I have friends who are teachers….
Love all of the sweet projects…
This set has so many fun elements. If you couldn’t make something for any teacher in your life, something’s wrong. Lovely projects, too…as usual.
Great set of stamps. I really love the large chevron and the tree.
I love school supplies and the theme of school. Cute projects!
Loving the apple and those darling chevrons. I wonder if these cards would work on my college professor…
What a wonderful thing to encourage – thanking our children’s teachers! Love the featured projects, and can see plenty of uses for various elements (oh, that great little ruler!) in other types of projects!
Beautiful cards! Great layout ideas.
So very excited for this set!! I work in a school and know this set will be used A LOT!
I love it! All the teacher appreciation gifts you can make with this set. Great cards and gifts everyone.
Makes me wish my girls were still in school π
Awesome stamp set! What a wonderful tribute to our everyday heroes – our teachers.
— Connie C.
These projects make me wish my kids were older so I could make things for their teachers! I love the way you stamped the banner and popped it up over the sentiment, it gives it so much dimension. This will be on my list in a couple years when my girls start school.
It’s all so amazing! Everything everyone came up with just floors me every time. Thank you for sharing!
Wonderful projects for the teachers in our lives! Thanks for the sneak peak. π
what beautiful, heartfelt sentiments! and the images are perfect not only for a school project but for all sorts of fun and games!
Wow – so many different teacher ideas. Nichole, I love that you pull out some older stamp sets to combine with the new releases. I sometimes forget about all of the older sets, which is really sad. I see some really fun projects in the near future!
Wow, the DT totally blow my mind with their awesome projects!! So many inspirations.
I am allways looking for great teacher’s gifts. i want to try to make things that say fromthe Teacher to make for them to give also.
I love the chevron stamp! So many possibilities…
What perfect images and die. Love the whole theme, especially now, when it’s almost back-to-school time. :o) Fabulous samples.
Awesome projects! I’ve long wanted more flexibility in making teacher gifts and notes. This set looks to satisfy that need. Cannot wait to see full release!
While I am too old to have a need for teacher gifts, I still am inspired by some of the neat ideas for backgrounds and details that can be used with other themes….Nicely done!
This is the first time I ever wished I was back in school!! The Teach & Inspire set is adorable.
OOooh, I especially love that custom background with the polka-dot pattern! Fantastic!
Nichole, I wish I was a few years younger, or you were a few uears older! I would have LOVED this set when my kids were younger! My baby just graduated High School! I doubt he will want me to make things for his college professors!
AWESOME set!
Susan
Adorable teacher ideas! Thank you for the inspiring project ideas!
WOW!!!! Love the teacher project ideas! I would love to have these sets for teacher gifts throughout the year!
Ooooh! I have so many relatives that are teachers… What a great line up for gifts!
Oh, I LOVE this new set especially that it will give more versatility to the previous one! LOVE LOVE LOVE!
Those teachers are going to be so happy when they receive their gifts. Great teacher stamp sets!! Love them all!
Wow… this set is simply GORGEOUS. The fonts, the decorative elements… everything. Makes me wish I had kiddos just so I could give their teachers neat gifts!!
Such lovely products and projects!
Love these cards…love my children’s teachers, they are wonderful! Can never find enough ways to say “thanks” to them.
What wonderful teacher images–very inspirational!
What a perfect set! The group really came up with some terrific creations!
I love all your projects made from these new stamps and dies. You and the DT are stellar as always!
This set will definitely get a lot of use at my house! I can see lots of fun projects for teacher luncheons, first day of school, and Teacher Appreciation Week!
Beautiful projects today! I can see a year full of teacher encouragement in this one!
As a former teacher, but with no relatives, I was interested in this set, but didn’t think I would use it. I can hardly wait to see the set, because it looks as though almost all the stamps would be fabulous on other kinds of cards. The tree, chevron pattern, ribbon banner, pencil and others have so much potential. A few non-teaching samples might whet others’ appetites as well.
LOVE the new pumpkin dies! I must have! Thank you so much for a chance to win <3
Ideas to honor teachers is ALWAYS a good idea! Thanks for all the fantastic inspiration PTI gals! π
Very fun and creative projects today!
I love pencils. Love all the images with them & dreaming of all I can do with them!
oh, this teacher loves this set and die! So fun and would be so useful π
Great resources for all the people that want to make teacher gifts.

I don’t have a child in school any longer but am totally trying to figure out how to justify buying this set! So many awesome projects from the team
Great cards and gift ideas. Always love anything teacher oriented. Love the apple dies.
Well i dont ‘need’ this set…My lil one is just 3 months old- but hey, she’ll have teachers in about 5 years time right?!!?!
You and your DT are just the best, most talented I’ve ever seen. I love all the projects and this release ROCKS!
I am sitting here with my mouth open. Simply incredible. That background you stamped is breathtaking, Nichole.
What a great new set. Love it.
What a great teacher set! It will make great teacher gifts and cards!
What an amazing release! I can’t wait to get all of these goodies!!
What a nice set to appreciate teachers. They are under so much stress that a nice card would just make their day.
I’m well past the kids in school age but Jessica Witty had some ideas that pushed me over the edge to “Gotta Have It” status. Think this might end up being a very versatile set. Thanks for all the lovely ideas.
the teachers apple set is wonderful. Love it.
The cards you made are wonderful as always.

What a fabulous set for teachers! Love the one with alphabet dies as background. Thanks so much for the inspirations.
I have no need whatsoever for this teacher set, but it is fabulous! Very clean, very professional looking. Love it!
This brings me back a lot of elementary school memories! Our whole family use to get involved in making gifts for our teachers around Christmas and when school is out. Definitely doing the same thing when I get kids!
Great products for all the wonderful teachers out there π
Best group post ever! Loved each and every teacher project. So inspired.
This is a great set that all teachers will love to get.
Adorable sets…I’m sure the teachers that are honored with items made with these will be so pleased!!
Great set! Love your cards and the DT made some great samples, using this set and/or others, too. π
I homeschool so I never figured I’d need a set like this…but now I’m thinking of all my friends who teach and know they’d love cards made with this set!
Looks like a fun and very useful set!
Wow! Just so many ideas with this release! Too cute…
I love everything for this month!!!!!
This is the first year I don’t have anyone going back to school. Kind of bittersweet… But I love this set, it is so versatile and can be used for many other occasions.

Strolling thru the school suppy aisle at Target, my 21 yr old daughter noted that for the first time in 22 years I did not have to buy school supplies! But we got a few items for my sister’s 3rd grade classroom. This set can be my “new” school supply!
Great projects. Love the pencil and ruler!
You’ve done it again! This set is so perfect for those teachers in our lives and you’ve provided much inspiration!
Being a teacher myself, I absolutely love this stamp set! I think it would even be perfect for teacher friends who have had a rough day to help brighten their spirits and let them know that they are appreciated and doing a wonderful job, even if they feel like they had a bad teaching day. Thanks for the wonderful inspiration!
Thanks for recognizing teachers, and giving us a great way to say thanks. Just love the set and all the ideas.
I am in love with that chevron banner! So so cute and I love that the teacher name tag coordinates with FF #7!
What a wonderful tribute to our wonderful teachers … this is a great stamp set!
my oldest just started kindergarten this year! love these sets!
Nice color combos today. So fresh! What teacher wouldn’t love a card made from this set?
Teach and Inspire will be perfect for cards to send my son studying product design in college.
1st grade for my oldest began 3 weeks ago – crazy times! She has a male teacher this year, and I can see a LOT I could do with this set! Plus, I can make something for myself to celebrate when I go back later this month – we neglected middle school teachers need some love, too. π
It amazes me how you come up with such wondeful collections each month! The teach and inspire collection is my favorite!
Yikes – definitely a must have! Such a wonderful set and DT creations for the teachers! Can’t wait to see the full reveal!

Wow, the Teach & Inspire set is another must have especially for us with kids, lol! Thanks for the wonderful teacher gift ideas too!!
I’m not a mother yet, nor am I a teacher, but I love the “mighty oaks” card and the background paper she made in “wonderful year”. I also really love Betsy Veldman’s card, too. They all make me wish I had a reason to make teacher cards
I love the images and projects made with the Teach and Inspire set!!

As a high school teacher going into my 17th year, thank you for this set. It is lovely, and I know that many teachers throughout the country are going to be blessed by it this year! As always, thanks for the inspiration … you are amazing.
Having spent 38 years in the profession I’m so delighted that you decided to celebrate teachers in this new release.
I am currently applying to graduate school and the teacher stamp sets would be of great use. I’m thinking about making thank you cards and sets of cards to give to my professors that are writing me recommendation letters. This set is going to come in handy!!! Loving it!
I am ever so grateful to all the wonderful teachers and support staff at school who are there helping my kids get the best education possible. How wonderful to have such great products to help me show my thankfulness and to celebrate their contributions! Thanks so much for the inspiration!
Excited to have a new teacher set, and can’t wait to get it. I wish it had come out last month-some of the sentiments would have been perfect to make a card with for the first day of school…which was last week in Arizona! LOL Great job PTI team!
A very inspiring post! I love all the projects. Teacher cards and gifts are a wonderful way to spend our craft dollars wisely.

Great ideas and beautiful projects! Love the block alphabet dies as a background!
I am always sending in treats and cards for the teachers so having another stamp set and dies to add to my crafting arsenal is wonderful. I can see this set getting a ton of use. Unfortunately, my kids all started school this week but that “Looking forward to a wonderful year” stamp will definitely get put to good use next year and for years to come.
Oh my! These are fabulous! I am a former teacher so I particularly love teacher stamps! Wow.
I don,t have any kids in school anymore and this set almost makes me wish I did. Such wonderful inspiration from all. Such a fantastic set!!!

I don’t have little ones any more to need teacher gifts for but I am working on school age scrapbook albums for them and see lots of fun ideas here that I can adapt. Nicole, I love how you cut out the whole alphabet and used the negative. I can see that as a cute mat for a photograph. Thanks to all the designers for great ideas.
Awesome ideas for all of the teachers in children’s lives. Just love the teachers apple

I aboslutely love the polka dot pattern you created with this set! I am definitely going to experiment with that! Hooray for another use for all those itty bitty stamps I have. I can also totally see myself using the chevron arrows to make a tie for a masculine project. What a great set…I can think of so many different ways to use the stamps already. π
Perfect stamps for teacher gifts – love the samples
Lovely new ideas for teachers’ cards. Loved the cute school supply embellishments!

This apple and teachers set is so cute and I love all the projects made with them!

All of the projects today are beautiful. My youngest is starting grad school this week, so I’m a bit limited on recipients for teacher items, but can always try to get a head start for any future grandchildren! Thanks for the chance to win a awesome gift certificate.
Great ideas – I am really inspired!
Wow oh Wow Nicole and DT…what spectacular projects!!!
Perfect for teacher appreciation gifts! Thanks for the inspiration!
I just love these projects! I would love to be able to send a card made with these elements to the wonderful teachers that have guided my son, who has Autism, throughout the years!
I am in love! I always loved school and had a few great teachers so I am inspired to make things for my kids teachers. With two kids with special needs in the classroom, these very brave men and women deserve my best work. Thanks for helping me make that possible.
Bring back tons of memories. These new teacher images will make wonderful cards and projects.
gettin’ inky…
Yeah! So looking forward to creating goodies for all of the teachers in my life.
What a fantastic idea! Wonderful wonderful samples today! Thank you!
My children are grown now and I don’t need this type of set personally, but these are very fun ideas for a special teacher.
Makes me wish I still have young kids in school. Alas, my young kids have grown up. But, the ideas you ladies have are amazing.
What a great set for teachers! These stamps & dies are just perfect!
Wow, these are fabulous!

Wow! This has to be my favorite day! I don’t have children other than my fur baby Bentley & I don’t think he is going to be attending school…lol Anyway I do try to be the most wonderful Aunt in the world so this will be perfect to make cards & gifts for my nephew who is starting 5K for him to give to his new teacher. Thanks for yet another amazing staple to add to my collection. ( Budget….be gone:)
I’m really excited about the pencil stamp (really, I should get out more.) I’ve been hoarding a partial sheet of patterned paper with pencils on it to use on back-to-school cards for my daughter, nieces, and nephew every year. (In fact, I really need to get on that!) Can’t wait to look at all of these projects in more detail.
This looks like a great teacher set. I love all the images and options you can create with it.
Super cute! Loving it and all the inspiration. Another great stamp set, as always! π
I just loved your alphabet card, so clever using the negative over the gingham. Teachers are a wonderful bunch and deserve all the thanks we can give them. Thanks for this set.
What cute cards for the teachers. It almost makes you want to be a teacher. They deserve these special treats!
Fun teacher ideas! Can’t wait to order tomorrow!
Another amazing release! Thanks for all the awesome projects and inspiration! Can’t wait for the 15th to start loading my cart! Choices, choices???
Fun stuff! Lots of great, new things to create with!

Cool set and examples! I can see people buying the teacher stamp set for the v-shaped chevron alone. That tree is pretty cute too! π
What fabulous projects! The tree with the apple is so darn cute. Love the sentiment. I need to remember to get out my baker’s twine…it adds so much.
Love the Teach & Inspire set. Great cards by all. Especially like the chevron stamp!!
As a teacher, these are some of my favorite projects ever! I will certainly be using some of these ideas for my son’s teachers this year. Thanks for the inspiration.
My days of making teachers’ gifts are long gone, but I am interested in other elements from the set. Will have to check it out!
Wow – what a great bunch of inspiring projects. I love that this set has some fun design elements that would work on any type of card – those chevron stripes would get a lot of use even if I never need to make a teacher card!
I love how this new set compliments the older one and keep those dies coming:-)
How great to have this set for teacher’s cards and gifts. Can see this being so useful and as usual I love the projects today. Lots of great ideas.
Another fabulous set! I don’t know what to pick first, so I guess I need them all.

So sweet! I see lots of great teacher gifts in the future!
With 2 in school this year, I’m looking forward to seeing the entire teacher set. There are so many uses for teacher appreciation gifts.
The chevron stamp is a must have. Love the salute to teachers. My kids are out of school but I have friends I consider my teachersand how fun to let them know it.
My children are long past the elementary school days but seeing these new sets, makes me wish I still had young ones. Very adorable!!

well i can only say i wish i still had kids in school LOL! I really love the pencil and the ruler π But i’m loving all the ideas – i really liked the bg you created with the polka dots and just all the beautiful cards today and for that matter throughout the week!!
I especially love the background paper you created, Nichole! I can’t wait to see the full sets tomorrow!
My wishlist just keeps growing! Fabulous new products. Thank you, PTI, for the great products and inspiration!
I like to go to school a day early and leave homemade cookies and a note for the teachers on their desks. I love the little surprise and day brightener that it is. This year I am doing it for the middle school teachers. they are usually especially nice about these kinds of gifts as they get so few at this age level.
How nice to have another great stamping set available to honor the teachers.I especially like the mighty oaks card. A special thank you for new apple die!
Wow the new products look amazing! Thanks for the chance to win!

I love everything but my fav is the background paper made with the circles, apples and numbers. I can see this working for a variety of occasions simply by changing out the apples for flowers or stars etc. Thanks for the inspiration and opportunity to win!

Teach and Inspire is off the charts fabulous! I love the banner and just all of it!
I have always liked school/teacher themed stamp sets. The apple dies are fantastic.
What a great set! Such inspiration from your design team!
My favorite ideas from today: Nichole’s custom BG paper and Cristina’s angled stripes on the card base. Clever!
September always makes me think of back to schoolβI love anything back to school and this doesn’t let me down.

New school years alway provide a fresh start, excitement and are full of anticipation. These projects with the new set are amazing. I especially like the Chevron stripes with the ruler and pencil. Such a great card for a man teacher. Teachers are honored in our home and deserve the very best. Can’t think of a better way to celebrate a new year. Love how they coordinate with Teacher’s Apple.
i LOVE the idea of making your own chevron pattern!
they are all very great additions to your collection!

I am sure any teacher would be happy receiving a gift make from these stamps.
The little pencil stamp so too cute. Love It!!!
What a wonderful new set! We should all celebrate the role of teachers in our children’s lives. Great teachers give so much of themselves and I think it’s so important to let them know you see that, and appreciate it!
Thanks for sharing all the teachers cards and projects today. I used to be a teacher so it was a real treat to see them.

Teach and Inspire is very inspiring! Thanks so much for the beautiful samples! My kids really aren’t looking forward to the start of school, but cool tools like these give me the crafting bug (so I’m ready for them to be back in school! π ).
“Bouquets of sharpend pencils” – favorite movie EVER! π
Love the adorable back to school themed sets! Fall is just around the corner and I couldn’t be more excited! Can’t wait for the release tomorrow! Yay!
I know lots of teachers who will love things made with the teacher set!
such fabulous card designs and projects! what teacher wouldn’t love to receive a hand-stamped gift!
Being the mother of school-aged boys, I am always in the hunt for appropriate teacher gifts. This set will make the task easier.
Absolutely delightful, Nichole – another very exciting and varied release – off to check out the rest of DT projects π
Very nice! I don’t have children yet so I don’t need these images but they sure are nice.
fantastic set and so versatile! My sister and her new husband are both teachers so this set will come in handy.
Beautiful projects, the stamp sets are so pretty and you, love everything I saw today, wish I could own it all!
Such beautiful, creative cards … and no one more deserving than the teachers of our children. The sets are awesome!
What an “inspiring” set – I especially love the “Teachers Open Minds” card. And if I knew how to get in touch with my 4th grade teacher, she would be receiving a card like this one!
