Tickle Bellies: Personalized stationary, labels and more

February 1, 2008Announcements & Stationary, Fun stuff for parents, PersonalizedAlicia

Ticklebellies1 Tickle Bellies founder, Colleen, created TickleBellies.com after designing a birth announcement for her second daughter Ellie. Colleen realized that there weren’t a lot of fun, yet simple, birth announcements available
on the market that were affordable.

She didn’t stop at birth announcements though.
Realizing that parents would pay for her designs, she branched out into other print products including ‘From the Mom of…’ notepads, personalized address labels and more.

Colleen recently sent me a few absolutely adorable items. I received a ‘From the Mom of…‘. notepad with cute little pictures that represent my kids very well (above). The notepad includes 100 sheets which will probably last the rest of this school year and into the next. I don’t have to write notes to Sebastian’s teacher on notebook paper anymore!

My Fruit Rollups – the perfect Valentine’s Day surprise!

January 30, 2008Food and Drink, Holiday, PersonalizedAlicia

Are you tired of the same old princess and superhero Valentine’s Day cards? I am. It’s the same thing every year. We go to Target to get Valentine’s Day cards and the shelves are full of tacky Pokemon, Bratz and other character cards. What happened to creativity? I remember making Valentine’s Day cards for my friends, myself. That was about 25 years ago. I suppose times have changed.

Fruit Rollups brings creativity back into Valentine’s Day and just about any other special occasion, with their new Fruit Rollup Invention Center.

The website is colorful, fun, and action packed. You start by selecting a picture, personalized message or both, from the Invention Center. If you are ‘creative challenged’ and don’t want to design your own Fruit Rollups, you can select from their design suggestions. After you have designed your personalized Fruit Rollups, you will create an account and tell them where you want your Fruit Rollups shipped.

Personalized Fruit Rollups are the best of both worlds. It’s a Valentine’s Day card and treat all in one!

GIVEAWAY!

I have THREE promotional codes good for a free order of 30 personalized Fruit Rollups to giveaway. All you have to do to enter to win is leave a comment using the comment link below, telling me the sweetest Valentine’s message you have sent or received.

Handmade minkee chenille toddler pillow

December 26, 2007Age 1-3, Age 3-5, Baby & Kids Clothing, Bedtime, Nursery & Room Decor, PersonalizedAlicia

Even though Madelyn isn’t old enough to have a pillow in her crib, she loves to have a soft pillow close by when tiddling around the house. When I received this pillow, before I even touched it, I thought it looked like the best pillow ever. Then, I touched it… Wow!!
Dilly Hearts minkee toddler pillows are so soft, I wanted to lay down on it myself and I did. I felt a little bad They are just the right size for your toddler to snuggle with, or lay down on while you are reading her stories. Additional colors and
textures are available by custom order. Have your child’s pillow customized with her name on it to make it a treasure she will share with her children.

I am going to post a photograph of Madelyn’s personalized minkee pillow soon. We accidentally left it at Grandmother’s house which she is not happy about! She loves her minkee pillow.

Dilly Hearts minkee toddler pillow cases are 100% polyester and are machine
washable. Pillow forms measure 12×16, are a 65% poly/35% cotton blend
and contain non-allergenic poly-fil.

Recommended for ages 2 and up. These and other pillows are not
intended for infants and should never be used in a crib.

Franklin Covey – Totes and Binders for mom

December 13, 2007Announcements & Stationary, Diaper Bags, Fun stuff for parents, Organization, PersonalizedAlicia

Who said Mom’s can’t be organized? I did.. a long time ago. When I was introduced to Franklin Covey’s planning systems, binders, and totes and my thoughts on organization have changed.

I absolutely fell in love with the Bellissima Business Tote the first time I saw it. This
luxurious calfskin tote featuring full-grain leather is divided into two large
compartments and lined in supple suede. Toting my laptop around has never been easier, or more stylish. Much better than my vinyl laptop bag.

The Bellissima Business Tote ensures that I am comfortable and stylish while toting all of my necessities. If need be, I can carry my laptop, a few diapers, a travel wipe case, diaper cream, and even a few office accessories in this tote.
The interior pockets are spacious enough to hold my PDA, cell phone, iPod, pens, and other everyday necessities.

If you desire a more casual handbag and binder solution, Franklin Covey’s got you covered with their Her Point of View totes and binders.

This line of totes features a magnetic closure, an 11" drop strap, and a spacious interior boasting perfectly sized pockets for carrying your much needed pens, cell phone, and personal items. The Her Point of View tote is available in several classic colors great for every season.

I am very impressed with the silky soft leather and the flexibility of the Her Point of View tote. I can’t stand lugging around a stiff handbag. The brass accents add a touch of style and it doesn’t stop there. The style is brought into the interior of the handbag with a beautiful flower print and a coordinating detachable wristlet.

So what do these totes have to do with organization? Their matching binders of course! These are the binders we dream of. Soft leather, lots of pockets/storage space, sturdy, room for a lot of planning pages and more. For the moms who might not have an obsessively organized tote, there is the zipper closer and for those who aren’t worried about their tote contents snagging on, attaching themselves to, or leaking on their binder, there is the magnetic closure. The Bellissima binder is available with a magnetic or zipper closure and the Her Point of View collection features a magnetic closure.

Franklin Covey’s totes and binders are items that will last a lifetime and most of their designs won’t go out of style when the trends change.
