A Roaring Birthday

February 4, 2012 by Rebecca Wagner 3 Comments

Happy Saturday everyone!  Just have a quick Print n Cut card I made for my friend’s son to go with his 3D letters.  Since he just turned 3, he doesn’t need to be walking around with embellishments that might fall off and magically jump in his little brother’s mouth. So, clean and super simple it is.

I used the Safari Kids color graphics from Kristi Dailey. I didn’t even have to decorate the frame except the title and name.  Super easy.  In hindsight, I will have my Silhouette SD cut out the inside too.  I used Kraft paper for the base but didn’t think about letting that show through behind the elements till it was too late and I had to get to the party.

I had cut out the lion to go on the 3D letters but I had already used too many animals.  That’s when the idea for this card came.  He was supposed to be a pop-up on the front but was too big.  He covered up my little monkey.  So I did the next best thing to not waste him – he gets to be all warm and snuggly on the inside.

If you are looking for really cute, inexpensive graphics for Print N Cut, Kristi Dailey is the place to be.  I am not really into bears with clothes but her Fairy Bears are too stinking cute.  Go check them out!  Kristi is also this week’s challenge sponsor over at the Make the Cut forum.  If you use MTC, come over and enter.  We would love to see what you create and if you are chosen the winner, Kristi has a great prize for you!

Hope you enjoyed today’s card.  Come back soon to see more projects and giveaways.  Have a great weekend and happy crafting!

So, I did a thing. Working on a pain point for Per So, I did a thing. Working on a pain point for Personal size. This is for those of you who think it’s too narrow but don’t want to purchase a new PW binder. Franklin Covey Compact is the next best thing. 

If you have a FFC binder already, we now will have refills for you too!

Foil lovers... we heard you. Since our foil equi Foil lovers... we heard you. 

Since our foil equipment went down, the messages and emails have not stopped. We know how much you love the look and honestly we love it too.

Replacing commercial foil equipment runs into the tens of thousands of dollars and, like a lot of small businesses right now, that's just not realistic. 

After months of testing with our existing setup, we think we found a way to bring foil back.

It's not mass factory perfect. Occasionally there may be a tiny spot where the foil doesn't pull 100%. Nothing obvious, nothing we wouldn't personally use, and nothing that doesn't meet our standards will ship.

But overall? We think it looks pretty gorgeous.

Before we officially bring foil back…

Would you still want it knowing it's handcrafted and not machine perfect? 

Tell me honestly in the comments. Your feedback will decide this one.

Nothing ruins a perfectly good month like… bills Nothing ruins a perfectly good month like… bills.

Good news: when everything’s written down, at least the chaos is organized.

Pay it. Check it off. Pretend you’re thriving.

Personal Size planners get a bad rap for one reaso Personal Size planners get a bad rap for one reason…

They’re narrow.

And I get it.
Personal is the perfect middle ground. Bigger than Pocket, fits in your purse, but way more portable than A5.

But the width?
That’s always been the complaint.

Lately I’ve been seeing people try to squeeze Personal Wide into standard Personal binders… and then wonder why the pages stick out.

So instead of making it wider… I went the other direction.

Foldouts.

For 2026, I reworked the layout to give you more planning space without changing the footprint.

Month on one page
Straight into your weekly
Dashboard space (because you know I had to keep that)
And when it’s folded?
Standard Personal Size. Fits your binder like it should.

Now I need your opinion before I finalize this…

What works better in vertical boxes?
