Day 3 with Becca Feeken- Ready-to-Go Card Kit

Today Becca has the perfect solution for how you can get organized and really have a JustRite Stash of Cards designed in this easy to make - Ready-to-Go Card kit. We can all only aspire to be this organized!! Becca your Project Rocks!! Thanks for sharing it with us!!

JustRite Red Ready-to-Go Card Kit

I am seriously one of those persons who makes cards but never has any simple cards to send. Some time ago I put together a kit of blank cards and medallions stamped with different occasions – all I had to do was pick my card then pick my medallion . . .Easy!! I used them up quickly, so that kit has long been gone; it was one of my most favorite projects. So I basically recreated that kit again. I chose the colors red, cream and black to do the card set, mostly dictated by the basket they’ll be kept in.


I made four sets of very generic cards with low profiles so that they could fit in my basket. The separate containers are stocked with the medallions that can be used on the card. Mounting tape has already been applied, so when it is time to use them, all I’ll have to do is peel the liner off of the back and pop the medallion onto a card.



It was pure serendipity that these acrylic containers I have in my studio fit in to the basket perfectly. They hold all the supplies. The center container is pre-tied bows. (I told you this has to be quick!!)

One container holds various monograms, done in multiples.



The last container holds various occasions done in multiples.
Here is what the set looks like with some of the medallions mounted.



Here’s a peek inside! The red basket is a silverware basket that I picked up from the craft store – I’ve seen these everywhere.

The medallions were made using JustRite 10 Designer Centers and Borders and the
JustRite Damask Borders Set as seen below:

These pre made cards are amazing. Wonderful use of time, to save the time to make each card whenever one is needed. I hope to make cards and save myself from forgetting and having to stop and create a card.
Thanks for the ideas!
