I just finished using this with a 3rd grade group. I splurged and ran the sequence ice cream cone in color and they absolutely loved the tall cone of ice cream. We glued the cone and bottom scoop in their reading notebooks and then they accordion folded it so it would fit in the notebook. It looks cool pulled out! Enjoy!

What a great deal! I can use almost all of these bookmark masters in my library. I especially appreciated the "non-holiday" versions for different seasons for my students who don't celebrate.

Glad you can use them. My kids love bookmarks... and are disappointed when we don't have them! I hope to create more soon!

BransonK5 re: Western Reading Theme - Cowboys and Cowgirls: Saddle Up and Read!
Thank you! Apparently, there was a glitch on my school laptop when I downloaded this afternoon - it stopped at page 18. I'm home now & downloaded it here - all 21 pages are here. I'll try your 200% suggestion tomorrow after school. Thanks again - I'm hoping to do a Western theme in the classroom next year, so all these things will give me a headstart.
April 14, 2013
Sawmillsmedia (TpT Seller)
A Western theme is fun! My offer still stands... if you need some different wording on a sign or poster, I will be glad to send it to you. Just e-mail me at sawmillsmedia@gmail.com

BransonK5 re: Western Reading Theme - Cowboys and Cowgirls: Saddle Up and Read!
I just purchased this Saddle Up and Read packet, and it is adorable. However the instructions mention a "Reading Ranch" door sign, and I don't see that in my download. Can you help me find it? Thanks.
Karen

Does your file have page 19? That is the Reading Ranch Poster or door sign I mentioned. I printed it at 200% or 2 pages X 2 pages and glued it together for my doors. If there is some different wording you need on a similar poster or sign, let me know and I will be glad to e-mail it to you. Just send what you need to sawmillsmedia@gmail.com
Thanks for your purchase! Our school has enjoyed a Western theme this year!

When I tried to download my purchase, the computer said that there was an error in opening the file and that the file was damaged and could not be repaired. I tried downloading it multiple times and received the same response. Could you email it to me? I am looking forward to using this for our bookclub. We will be reading this story over the next 3 weeks. :)

I just purchased the "Junie B. Jingle Bells..." unit. It will not download. It takes a very long time, then gives me a "500 Internal Server Error" message. I really need this for this week. Can you please look into this for me? Thank you!

It is not really a font... it is a set of clip art with a variety of shapes and colors - one complete set of upper case and one of lower case. It is from the 3AM- Teacher here on TpT. I love her clip art as you can tell from visiting my store. It would be cute on scrapbook pages.

Scipi (TpT Seller) re: Pudgy Animals Theme Samples
I saw your posting on the Sellers Forum page of Teachers Pay Teachers; so, I thought I would look at your freebie. Here are a few suggestions that might help you to better market your products. Move your advertising for you store to the last page. Buyers don't want to see it up front. Add a second page which is a directions or suggestions page. List several ways you use this product in your classroom. Never assume that a buyer knows how, why, or when to use your product. Also, number your pages.
It is important that we see what others are doing; so, feel free to look at any or all of my freebies listed below to gather some ideas. If you care to, a rating or any feedback you might have would be great.

Howdy Partner,
Recently, you purchase my first clipart set. It was a western theme. Since then I got a new computer and have been able to upgrade the package to include more items and some larger clipart. If you go to your purchases, you should be able to download it at no additional cost.
Let me know if you like the new pieces.
Creatively yours,
Charlotte
