So sorry if you tuned in last week and noticed I didn't have this posted. I had just gotten back into town from a wedding and came back to a super crazy few days at work.
We are now back to regular programming!

This week I dabbled around in card making. 
I see all these cute cards all over pinterest and instagram and decided it was time to try out my own!

My dad has a birthday coming up so I figured why not start with a simple Happy Birthday card. 
{He stocks the blog, so act surprised dad when you get this next week!}

I started with getting inspiration.
 Candles, balloons, cake, gifts. 
SO many options! 
I started off with the most simple: balloons. 

I cut out the balloon shapes with plain white card stock. 
I then covered them with washi tape and then trimmed to match the shape.

Eccentric and wacky, just like my dad! 

After covering them in tape, I attached them to a hand cut card with some string.

I added a Happy Birthday stamp, and wa-la!  After looking at it on here, it looks super plain.
I'm definitely no expert card maker but it's nice saving $3.99! 

Ehh, oh well! Now I know for next time.

I have been seeing all these cute cards around Instagram lately that I'm obsessed with. I didn't dabble around with a card this time, but something similar. 

I had some random tags laying around that I figured I could spruce up with some washi and then use them for all my upcoming gifts.
 {Yes, I'm thinking of gift giving season already!}

I think the blue and black tag is my favorite. 


This week, I was kinda stumped on what to do. I was looking at my small collection of wash tape thinking I needed to expand my color selection. 
Where do ya'll get yours? Preferably for cheap, because we are on the saving money kick.

This weekend CT and I upgraded our old PC to a new macbook pro! I am in love with it. The battery has lasted 3 full days, it's super quick, and I love the fact that I don't have to get worried about it getting viruses. 

So I went on amazing as soon as I got home for a cheap cover to protect this bad boy. 

Who doesn't love the color robins egg blue?

I also then found this super fun keyboard cover. 

Pink + Chevron = totally my style. 

I figured if my computer was going to be super cute that I needed to make the charger super cute too. 

Why not add a little washi tape to spice things up. 
Now that I see all the colors together in this post, I'm not sure I like the blue.
I'll have to see how it looks when everything comes and I get the cover and keyboard put on. It may be too blue so I might have to redo it. 
Good thing it's super easy to remove. 
That's a plus and negative to washi tape. 

What color do you think would look good? 
I'm thinking probably pink.

If you follow me on

 

or

you would know that Christian and I are trying out this whole Dave Ramsey cash envelope budget system. 

{Tune in Monday to hear more about our version}

Until I have time to make some pretty fabric envelopes, I decided to go with the old fashion paper type.

I got these from walmart for $5. 

I liked the color of them, but I wanted to Tiff-a-fy them a little more by adding some glitz with washi tape!

Again, simple and easy and it just looks fun. 

I think my fav is the purple with black tape. 

PS - I found the glitter tape at Walmart for $1 in the scrap book section.
 How awesome of a deal is that?  

Tell your friends about the link up. I would love to get some new ideas!

 This weeks washi tape craft was a gift I did for a good friend of mine who is getting married at the beginning of next month. She is a newbie to cooking and I wanted to give her some of my favorite go to recipes.

I wanted it to be a little bit more personal, so I purchased the recipe box from hobby lobby and up-cycled it.

I had to break out the cricut to make the red piece because when I tried to hand write her name, the marker smudged! 
I think it turned out better this way.

I decorated the edges of the divider cards with Washi Tape. So simple but it really gives it some pop. And it helps to color code the different categories. 

It's not super fancy but it's cute and functional and fun!
A little washi tape can really transform anything.

I then added in my recipe cards and wa-la!

This week, as I was searching high and low for a chip bag clip I couldn't find anything but I stumbled across some clothes pins. 

 
I knew they would be the perfect solution to preventing stale chips! 
And what better way to give them a little extra pizazz then add some washi tape! 

I then wanted to add some magnents to the back just incase they weren't being used on chips I could use them to help hold  some goodies on the fridge. 

The backs aren't the prettiest but they get the job done! 

My fridge now has a little bit of color on it! 

If you are into homemade gifts, I would recommend these! 
Super easy and super cute. 

I would also recommend when using washi tape on clothes pen, to use the 3/8 inch size of tape. It covers the pen perfectly with nothing hanging off the edge!
