Valentine Class Bookmark Cards – Free Download!!!

IMG_4015With sick kids, half days and a multitude of other unplanned stuff in our schedule, it’s been taking me longer than I would have liked to get these valentine bookmarks finished and shared for a valentine freebie! But, alas, I finished {sigh}.

I really try to limit the trinket quota in our house, but it always seems to be a loosing battle. However, I trudge on and hope someday my house will be a trinket free zone (wishful thinking, right?). That said, for valentine’s day, it’s a mecca of trinkets and so in the past I’ve just done some simple valentine cards (see my Etsy Shop) with a lollipop taped to the back. For fear my kids will get bored with my noncreative valentine efforts (however, I thought their cards were pretty cute, but kids could care less about the design…it was for me 🙂 ), I decided to create some valentine bookmarks. Not as exciting as candy, but my mom conscience feels much better about it! So here you have it…they are a free download for the next week and then they will be available on my Etsy Shop for purchase after that.  Just print (on card stock), trim and write on the back and you are finished! Enjoy 🙂

Christmas Dinner Place Card Freebie!

IMG_3543This year we aren’t hosting Christmas for the first time in a looooong time. We are going to enjoy the day stress free at my brother’s house this year, which I am kind of relieved to not have to plan and host a big dinner. Aaaaahhhh! That said, I love to decorate the table for Christmas and come up with fun place card holders for the table. I always do something simple and pretty inexpensive…usually it involves my husband going out and picking some evergreen branches for me from some trees outside 🙂 Last year was one of my favorite tablescapes with skinny pine tree branches stuck in left over pieces of wood from what we cut off from our Christmas tree. My husband drilled a hole in the middle of the small stumps so the branches slid right in. It was simple, free and easy. I wish I had some pictures, but I sadly forgot to take any.

BUT, the other dressing for the table were these fun place cards (Click here for the free download!!). You can type in the names of your guests in the PDF or just leave it blank and write them in yourself. You choose! Click here for the free font if it doesn’t show on your computer. Enjoy!

Hello Again…and Thanksgiving Freebie

 

gratitude cards

I’ve put on my blogging boots again after a six year hiatus while my girls were little. My oldest is now in first grade and my younger little spit fire is in preschool still, but next year she is in kindergarten…yahoo! As I am writing at this very moment, she is yelling at her sister in the background about fairness…she is the queen of “UN”fairness and playing to her big sis’s emotions to get what she wants. I’ve loved every moment of it, the good AND the bad, but serenity now!!!

OK – I need to focus here…(full time school next year, full time school next year…).

This year we are hosting Thanksgiving at our house after taking several years break, so my creative juices have been flowing on how I want to dress the table. I can’t help myself but to include a few printables to the mix, so I created these subtle gratitude/thankful cards to display either at the table or hanging elsewhere maybe on a branch or something. I love the tradition of everyone going around the table and saying what they are thankful for at the moment…and following recent tragedies, we are all thankful for something, whether it be big or small! To kick off my blog debut (again), I have included a free printable for your Thanksgiving table.

And come back soon for some coordinating name cards!
