I went to Target. I haven't been there in a long time because I usually only go shopping when I need something. And I hate taking my 4 yr old to Target. So after needing to go for like 2 weeks I finally got there. They are the best place to print out collage prints if you want smaller pictures to fit the 3x4 size for the pocket pages in scrapbooking or and smaller size print. And you know what I did? I ended up spending way too much time and money and ended up late picking the 4 yr old up at preschool. Guess it's a good thing I don't go too often eh?
This is what I found at Target that got me so excited:
Pretty cards and washi tape! Best off it was in the $1 section AND I had a cartwheel app coupon for 20% off! So both of these cost $0.80. Yup. Great find!
I challenged myself to create these 8 cards using only what I had on hand and I ended up using some Picture My Life cards making it waaaaaay too easy to make some amazing cards. Even if you don't have the same supplies as I do, you can totally use any pocket page cards to create your own beautiful cards- and I'm sure you have tons of leftover supplies just like me you can use!
Baby cards are the cards I run out of faster than any other! This one turned out beautifully and I can't wait to hand it out.
