I'm in the middle of making gifts for my dd's teacher. Here's a thread I just posted last week, maybe it will give you some ideas.

they have a really cute teacher set
and if you go the gallery and do a search for teacherabella Bella stamps has a really cute teacher stamp too
I live in Fl and have both of these stamps set, so depending on when you need them I could send you some images.

High Hopes has some fun Teacher related stamps

Maybe you don't need to go and find teacher related stamps. I could imagine they must get tired of apples and pencil themed gifts.

I'd try using something I already have -- flowers or whatever!

I usually make monogrammed cards for the teachers....do you have a nice alphabet set? Or sets of thank you cards...they go through lots of those.

I normally make monogram cards also that way they can choose to send them for whatever. I did 10 sets at Christmas for my son's teachers and they loved em. I used the Papertrey monogram set

I am a teacher (although currently a SAHM) and I third the Monogram set of cards for teacher gifts. That way they can use them for any holiday/occasion they need a card for. I know some teachers are into apples, but not all of them and then they would only be able to use the cards for school things. They also work great for male and female teachers. The best part is as long as you have an alphabet stamp and some circle punches they're a breeze to put together. If you don't have an alphabet, you could computer generate the letter and if you don't have circle/scallop punches, you could use a square like one of the samples below. Here are some that I have in my favorites:

I purchased these. They stamp well and have nice big, clean images.

So far (yes, I am supposed to be doing more right now), I've made notebooks and a paper clip book mark.

I like the monogram set idea though.

Good luck!

WOW!

That's great.

I know traditionally monograms are the last name first initial. Or the First, Middle, Last with the last being the largest. Any advice for hyphenated names?
