Let's get organized!



I am the world's worst birthday remember-er! I have such good intentions, but then three days after that special someone's birthday has come and gone I usually have that 'light bulb' moment! So, when I stumbled on Beate's Card Organizer on SCS I was so excited to make it! Each month has a pocket to hold birthday cards and lines to jot down all of the birthdays you need to remember! Too cool! I found the tutorial on SCS here http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/ee/index.php/resources/tutorials/card_organizer/
I will be giving this one to my sis-in-law as a birthday gift and making another for myself later! The pages are made from 6 12 x 12 sheets of card stock and then the two covers. I used my book binder (a must when you home school!) to bind the whole thing together! Viola'! : )

Recipe:
Stamps: SU! Baroque Motifs (Love this set!!)
Paper: Neutrals from Michaels, SU! Brilliant Blue and River Rock
Ink: River Rock, Wild Wasabi, Not quite Navy and Ballet Blue
Extras: Gold Brads, Ticket Punch, Baubles from Michael's Dollar bins
Techniques: Paper Piercing

  2. CUTE! TRYING to keep organized is always one of my priorities, and I'm usually not too good at keeping up with it! Oh well!

  3. Wow, that is awesome. I will have to give this a try. Will be perfect for anniversaries too since everyone I know is now getting married :D

  4. This turned out gorgeous! Great job! This might be too ambitious for me - I'm working on just organizing with index tabs inside a tin lunch box. (When I say "working on" I mean, I've thought about, but haven't started yet! LOL)
