It’s the age old question – what do you get for the person who has it all?! This week, I found the perfect solution for the crafter who “has it all!” 

In search of the perfect gift for my best friend, I came across these colorful Romanoff mini storage boxes that come in cheery colors like strawberry, grape and lime. They have the automatic cute factor going for them, and while they’re ultra affordable at $1.99, they also make the PERFECT home for a set of mini cards! In no time at all, I was able to personalize the box top and create a set of coordinating mini cards. She’ll now have custom greetings to share with her friends and family and can continue to use the box for safe keeping. The combination is a gift any crafter can appreciate!  

 

Like mini cards as much as I do? Be sure to grab a seat in the Marvelous Minis Card Workshop that starts this weekend! There’s even an entire front table display of items dedicated to making mini cards – get creative today in a “mini” way!

Archiver’s has a coordinating line of cards, envelopes and labels (called Yours Truly) which I have been using for holiday and birthday cards for years.  The problem with the line?  With all the colors we carried, there was no suitable bright pink in the assortment.  And if you’ve got daughters, granddaughters, or nieces, like me, you know what a big deal this is. Starting at about age 2, they want EVERYTHING to be pink.  You can maybe get away with purple every now and then, but pink is really where it’s at.  I have made quite a few birthday party invites and valentines over the years for and with my girls and had to trim cardstock for the cards and go without matching envelopes, so you can imagine how excited I was to hear that we have now added fuschia to our mix of Yours Truly colors!

Check out this adorable card with easy, matching, lined envelopes that Molly created for one of our customer emails.  SO cute, and doesn’t this Fuschia work just perfectly with the darling De Lovely collection from Cosmo Cricket too?  Adorable, pink, and sassy just like my girls.  Love it!
