Looking for a cute Teacher's gift idea?

I have just finished making this cute little box on wheels.
It is a Stampin' Up Make and Take project from the last Convention.
And I was thinking it is a cute little gift.
Inside it fits 4 little cards. Like this one:
 The elephant is stamped and cut out to sit ontop the patterned paper oval.
It says Celebrate! You deserve it.
 The colours are Bright as you'd expect at the circus:
Real Red, Tempting Turquoise and Daffodil Yellow. 
The box on wheels is made using the Scallop envelope BigZ die that you cut out with your Big shot machine.
 The stampset is called "Under the Big Top".
My Lion is painted with the aquapainter brush using Daffodil, Red and More Mustard inks.
Then the ever resourceful Jessica made her own version with the off cut extras left on my table.
She's done a brilliant job, don't you think?

Jessica's Favourite stampset is:

 
After the school holidays the children's favourite stampset has been named.
It is ..... (drum roll) ...
"Under the Big Top"
 A cute pink dancing bear ... looking suspiciously like a mouse with a pink curly tail.
 A Happy Birthday Seal with balancing birthday cake.
 And, my favourite for sure ...
You're the best and I'm not LION!
