Cork Bulletin Boards for Inside of Cupboard Doors

Three weeks ago I posted these photos from Young House Love and I just had to make these for my craft room cupboard doors.



These were made for the kitchen and are perfect to store menu plans, recipes and more. Scroll down and watch my video to see how I adapted this quick and easy idea for my craft room.



Have a great day!

Make it in Minutes Monday!

Welcome to Make it in Minutes Monday… the Mini Series. I thought it would be fun to feature some quick and easy cards that take less than 10 minutes to make, but look like you spent more time making them.


I love this adorable file from SVG Cuts. You could also use this card for lots of different occasions, including birthday and for next year’s father’s day! You could change the papers and make a perfect bowling shirt or invitation.


The shirt card is part of the travel inspired Summer Holiday kit from SVG cuts. I can’t wait to make the travel case. Adorable!

Be sure to stop back Wednesday for a new how to video!

Make it in Minutes Monday!

Welcome to another Make it in Minutes Monday… the Mini Series. I thought it would be fun to feature some quick and easy cards that take less than 10 minutes to make, but look like you spent more time making them. I have to admit that today’s project took a little longer than 10 minutes, however, you can make the card in less than 10 minutes.

I am a huge fan of Patricia Zapata and her cutting files. She is an amazing artist and I love her designs. Click here to view her blog and here to view her website.


For this adorable project I used her new spring gift card set. This set is so versatile! You get a vertical framed sprig or branch design (proportional to fit over the box and on A10 cards), two smaller sprigs, an A10 sized gift box, a box insert for a gift card and a blank gift card, an A10 Card, a #10 envelope and an adorable flower all for $4.99.


You can also make individual cards with this set. I love how the blue and green card could be used for any occasion and men will love it too!


The box has a removable insert that holds a gift card. How clever and what a fun way to give a gift card.


You can remove the insert and then the box can hold cards and matching envelopes for a cute gift. And it is a one piece box. You could even use it for a candy box!

Thanks for visiting and stay tuned for an exciting week including a surprise.
