Back to School #25DaysofColor with Astrobrights

If you know anything about me, you know I *love* color.  Color can make learning a more fun and impactful experience.  Using color paper can add creativity to everything in the classroom.  Astrobrights kicked off their #25daysofcolor in early July and for 25 days, Astrobrights Papers will feature a project using a different color of its paper, providing ideas and inspiration on how to #ColorizeYourClassroom.  

My HERO colors are beautiful! My chosen colored papers include:

Gravity Grape

Outrageous Orchid

Planetary Purple

For my main selected craft, I chose to use Planetary Purple!  To create this fun gift for students, I just used my hole punch to make a hole in the tag and attach the Slinky using ribbon!

 I found these mini-size Slinky toys in the Dollar Spot at Target.  What kid doesn't love playing with a Slinky?  I created the tag for the beginning of the year to give to students at Meet the Teacher.
