I made these for my boy's teachers this week. I got the idea for the pretzels from Family Fun magazine. The pretzels are dipped in colored white chocolate. I made the crayon wrapper on the computer. If anyone would want it, I'd love to share it!
As for the card, I know it was CASE'd and altered at some point. A friend gave it to me over a year ago and she CASE'd it so I don't know who the original artist is. We stamped the teachers names on the front and on the inside I used the stamp from Crayon Christmas that says "Hope your Christmas is colored with happiness". I cut out Christmas and remounted it and after I stamped the card, I filled in "day".
We made 13 bags of 9 pretzels in each bag and they were a HUGE hit :-)

I saw this in my family fun magazine and thought it was the coolest thing to do for school.
Now I really have to try, that is if I can get past not eating the chocolate!

This is so cute! I am doing a craft show to raise money for a family at Christmas and would love to make these for parents to buy for their kids' teachers! Please send me (also!) the crayon template.
