Hi friends! Today is my 17 year wedding anniversary! Isn’t it funny how time flies? My hubby and I have the entire day to spend together and I am so thankful. Some days are ideal and on other days we have to make the most of the time we have and try to Squeeze the best out of the day we are given.
I really liked this sentiment: “When life gives you lemons…Squeeze the day” because it is a good motto I think. It’s also nice if you like to decorate the inside and outside of a card.
Watch the video to see how I made this card!

hoard washi tape?!
You wouldn’t believe how much I have! I often buy them in sets and don’t like them all so I use the not-so-nice ones to just tape something to somewhere for the time being. I force myself to actually USE them from time to time. I think it also be a matter of finding what I need. I might try out sorting them by colors in lunch boxes after watching this video.
The card looks so cheery it brightens up my day. It’s so gray here it looks like we’re getting some rain and watching you making this pretty card was fun!

Hi Pamela, A few months ago I put my washi tape in trays on their sides so the print faces up. I used clear acrylic box frames for this but the shallow plastic rectangle baskets from dollar tree or any shallow box will work. Most tapes are buy color as close as I can get and I saves so much space! I did keep some themed tubes together though but I can see everything so it gets used. Maybe that idea can help you. I share a photo of my tray on my instagram a few months ago if you want to see.
