I am so excited about the new templates I have coming out tomorrow... one of my new favorites. PLUS... they now come with cutting files! So, if you have a digital cutter, these are quick and easy! If you don't have a digital cutter, no worries, I've still included all the regular files, too!




Make sure you stop by for DSD for some fun and great deals!!




Also, if you go to Very Jane today, you can get these holiday printables I created with Krista from Sahlin Studio at the best price they've ever been... check it out!

happy mail

It's new calendar season... at least for me. I discovered this calendar several years ago, and now it is the only calendar I use.



I LOVE it. It goes from September 2011 until December 2012. I love that it starts in September, so I have the entire school year in one calendar. Plus, the squares are lined with plenty of room to write.



Time to get out my favorite multi-colored calendar pens and start filling out this big, blank calendar. I love this time of year.

trifold card

This is a fun card I made that doubles as a gift card holder. This specific one used free printables (the subway art front and the record on he inside) from eighteen25. We put an iTunes gift card in the envelope on the inside and gave it to my daughter's dance teacher at their end-of-year recital. The finished size of the card is the standard 4.25" x 5.5". When unfolded all the way, it measures 12" x 5.5".

Plenty of room on the inside to write a message

I have also made a birthday and graduation one using more printables from eighteen25. As soon as I get the pictures off my memory card, I'll post them.

happy birthday SM!
