Cute, Easy Birthday Cards

I wanted to just show a couple of super simple Birthday cards I made. These took less than 5 minutes each. I just used some premade cards from DCWV and then added some ribbon, die cuts/stickers and stamped a sentiment.

These are so much cuter than buying a card and are only a fraction of the cost.

Monday Organization Tip!!

Hi everyone.... I have decided that Mondays are going to be organization tip days. We all need help organizing our supplies better and let's be honest, it's just plain fun to play with our supplies.

I have a small addiction to ribbon. I have tried to come up with many ways to store it and none have ever worked for me. I don't like keeping it on the rolls because they take up way too much room.

This is how I am doing it now. I am rolling all of my ribbon onto doll clothespins found at Michaels or AC Moore. I used to secure the ribbon with a piece of tape on the end but as you will see in the later photos, the tape kept coming undone. Now I am using a sewing pin to secure the ribbon. It works fantastic.

I hope you feel inspired to come up with a ribbon storage system that works for you.
