This is a fun little unit and I will be using it this year. I'm a little disappointed in the quality. The graphics are a little off. I am a type A personality though, so could be just me!

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS:
amylschumacher re: Ladybug and Dots Themed D'Nealian Cursive Wall alphabet
Hi Krista! I purchased your classroom alphabet posters and I noticed that they are in D'Nealian cursive. Are you able to make them in Zaner-Bloser cursive for me? I can send you my email address if this is possible. Thanks!
June 15, 2013
Krista Mehrtens (TpT Seller)
Hi! I am sorry, but at this time I am unable to make them in Zaner-Bloser cursive. I just did some research looking for this font, and at this time I am unable to purchase it for commercial use at an affordable price. Thank you so much for checking!
June 16, 2013
klingm re: Editable Chevron and Polka Dot Labels
I just wanted to double check that the labels are black, white and red. Some look pink online.
June 15, 2013
Krista Mehrtens (TpT Seller)
Thank you so much for your question! Yes, the labels are red, black, and white. One label that is on the right in the preview does print a bit more light red in color.
