Password -URL Keeper

It is difficult to keep up with all the websites, blogs, email servers, and other places I have to sign into with passwords so I made these little cards that will fit into a file box. If I don't use a file box, they are a good size to slide beneath a mouse pad to keep them handy and close by.
Since the most used file boxes are made for 3x5 inch or 4x6 cards, I made 2 sizes. Both sizes are png format so they are transparent. If I decide to I can add my choice of graphics. 110 lb cardstock works very well for these cards. Another idea is to print them on light colored cardstock. Either way, they should come in very handy.
I have stored these cards in my photobucket album so I can share them with anyone who would like a copy. If you do want a copy or copies, click on the links below and when the page opens up, you will see the preview. You then have to click on it again to go to the full size. When it goes to the full size, all you do is right click on the template and save a copy to your computer!
Be sure to save the template as a png or you will not be able to add a graphic behind the lines. Saving as a jpg is fine if you do not want to add graphics. They look very large because I set the resolution (pixels per inch) to be at 300%, but they will print out at 100%.

One Page Calendars

I made more calendars! This time they are again all twelve months on one page, but they are a full page size. I think they could be made a little smaller by resizing them but I like this size. I'm showing a sample of two of them here and giving away my template again! I've included two templates in the download, one with the 2009 date added and one without it. The date can be added in your graphic program and matched to your graphics. You can add graphics on the top part and also behind the numbers, because I've made the template transparent.
So go ahead and click on my 4 Shared link here and have fun with them. I did!

Magnetic Calendars

I hope I do not seem to be rushing the next year in but I have been playing around with a calendar template and made it transparent and I also made it with the blank center so that graphics or a background can be added behind it and/or in the center of the calendar. I think it came out nice and today I printed out some calendars on magnet sheets. These can be use on a refrigerator, school locker, office cabinet or other metal surfaces.
I originally made a 6x6 inch template but then decided that If I made it 5x5 inches I could easily print 2 of them on a full size magnet sheet. I used the Avery Magnet sheets which have a matte surface and they print out nicely. I printed 2 sheets then put them back to back, slid them between laminating sheets and run them through my Scotch brand heat laminator. By doing them back to back, I can laminate both sheets in one run. Then I cut them out and separate them, ending up with 4 magnets with a laminated front.
I've decide to share my blank calendar template with anyone who would like to make some of these fun little calendars and I've include the two sizes in the download. The templates are PNG format and transparent. You can get my blank calendar templates HERE at my 4shared account.

This is a close up of one but I had to tilt my camera so that I didn't get a flash back from the shiny lamination. It looks a little distored but it really isn't. :-)

Post It Note Holders

This is another of the little purse post it note holders I made. I'm also showing the template that I designed for it. If you would like to use the template for your personal use, feel free to save a copy to your computer.
The closure uses a stick on velcro spot. This is very simple and easy to make.

Slide Out Pencil Box

Schools in most areas will be starting soon. It seems like they just got out for summer break. The stores already have school supplies and WalMart has this cute slide out pencil box for about 50 cents. I bought some of these boxes a couple of years ago when they had their after school sale and I only paid 10 cents each for them. You can use these to store a lot of little gadgets and craft items plus they make good little gift holders for small items such as candies and toys, etc.

This is one way I altered some of the boxes to give them a prettier look.
I designed a cover. Added graphics, printed it, cut it out, and covered the box...wa-la, a pretty box! You could also add pretty button, beads, ribbons or whatever you like to alter the look.

They come in assortment of different colors. I just bought another one in red and thought that would be good for something for Christmas. In the meantime, I have photos of the ones I did a couple of years ago.

I'm offering my template to you free for your personal use and I hope you find it useful. Have fun making some pretty boxes!

The template is a transparent PNG. Directions are included.
You can download it here from my 4 shared account.

*note - I just realized that the newer box I bought has a shorter closure on it, thus the snap is in a different position. This is the only difference so I have re-uploaded the 4 shared files and included a template for both boxes. The snap position is the only difference, and I apologize if this has inconvenienced anyone who previously downloaded.
