Candy Tags

I covered an Andes Bar and added this cute tag accent.  It was the perfect compliment to a thank you card.  This will be entered in the More Than Favors challenge (tags). 

Organizing a Nursery

I've started organizing the nursery!  I have thought of some great, inexpensive ways to organize, so I thought I would share these ideas.  Please feel welcome to post any ideas that you have.  I'd love to hear them!

I printed the basket labels on card stock and mounted them on some paper from my scrap bin.  The baskets are Sterlite brand and can easily be used in other areas of Baby's room as they grow up.  I have a basket for socks, onesies, burp cloths, bibs, towels, and toys. 

I have accumulated clothes faster than I expected.  In order to quickly find the separation in sizes, I colored some clothes pins to help organize the closet.  I thought about different paper options, but decided this would be the most durable option. 

Here is the final tip that I found helpful: Use a lingerie bag to wash and dry those tiny socks so you will not lose any of them!

Card Box

I made tab dividers so I could easily find what I am looking for in my card box.  The bin is part of the Itso collection from Target. 

You can purchase a small crate or basket from the Dollar Store, add cards and dividers, and give it as an inexpensive gift. 

I Miss You

My puppy sent this card to "Grandma" and "Grandpa" (and they loved it!).  The font and image are from the Paper Pups Cricut Cartridge.  This card will be entered in the My Time to Craft Challenge (Pets) and the Paper Cutz Challenge (Anything Goes). 

Sleeping Puppy

Cooking with Cricut posed a challenge to find "Cash in Your Stash".  The star paper and ribbon were from my scrap bin and the star brads were purchased long ago without a purpose.  I was also able to pull out an old Cricut cartridge, Paper Pups.  This was designed to be a thinking of you card.

Purple Bouquet

I used a stamp from the dollar bin at Michael's and colored the flowers in with colored pencils.  The ribbon is wrapped around the bouquet with two punched holes.  This card will be entered in the Really Reasonable Ribbon challenge (Violets, Lilacs, & Plumbs, Oh My!).

Baby Announcement

Here is the inside of my "Love Bug" Valentine's Card that I made for our parents.  I was not able to share it earlier because some of my fellow bloggers are friends.  The mom is from the New Arrival cartridge, and her shirt is embossed with the Swiss Dots Cuttlebug folder.  I am entering this in the Scrappy Moms New Arrival Challenge.
