Day 3 : Cards
I know when it comes to preparing for the new year, one thing I always look forward to is getting a new planner. Over the past few years, I have bought an inexpensive one from a local grocery store. I would use it for a few months and by about March or April, it was…
I don’t know about you, but every spring, the ants welcome themselves in and overstay their welcome! I have always used a store-bought ant killer, but I had run out of the old. I could’ve ran to the store, but I quickly jumped online to see if there was a homemade concoction that I could…
Decluttering is a process. Whether it be physical or emotional. At times, the physical decluttering and organizing process is easier than the emotional. It is the emotional clutter that we cling to; that we hold on to and hold on to adamantly. Emotional clutter can weigh us down – not just physically, but emotionally and…
Another ridiculous topic, right? Batteries. Where are your batteries? Where do you store them? Are they all in one location? Really? “Mom, I need 2 AA batteries!” Have you heard that phrase about a zillion times, yet don’t have a clue where even ONE is? You look in the “battery drawer” but all you see…
In efforts to live with less and pare down when it comes to EVERYTHING I own, I have come to grips with some very deep truths about myself. Well okay, maybe not “deep” truths, but realizations that: I am never going to be what I think I might be someday. Let me explain. I used…
Hard to believe that school is just around the corner! For some, this may already be a fleeting thought since your kids are in school already! This is a series I did a year ago, but thought it would still apply, as the stress around school always happens it seems, no matter what year it…

Awesome idea, Kristin! I tried taking a day at the beginning of the year and making all of the cards that I thought I would need for the year, but I never finished. But at least I got some done so I'm slightly ahead of the game!
Very clever idea!
Thanks Carol! It took me all too long to figure out a good system for cards, but I would say I now found it!

We would like to invite you to party with us at starting at 5:00 Thursday nights at our new Blog Strut Peacock Style Link Party to share your creative ideas. Come on over!! http://wp.me/P2Vf55-1K
I love this idea and will be doing it soon!
I go to the dollar store about every 2-3 months and buy for the upcoming Special Days, Sympathy and Thinking of You cards. I place them in my box and just pull them out when the time comes. I set the birthdays and appointments up on the calendar located on my PC. I place the birthdays on 4 days in advance and receive a reminder in my e-mail box. This gives me time to mail the cards. Works out great.
What a great idea to put the dates in a calendar on your computer and then have an email reminder! Then you are bound to never forget :)! The dollar store truly has some good cards – you just have to take the time to look. Love it! Thank you for sharing!
Great idea! I would love it if you joined and contribute your awesome posts at my link party at City of Creative Dreams on Fridays 😀 Hope to see you there at City of Creative Dreams Link Party.
