New Templates from Creations by AR!

 Read on for your chance to win!

I'm so excited it's time to finally show you the two newly released templates at Creations by AR! Let's jump right to it, first up is the Ribbon Keeper!
Isn't it great! I have a lot of ribbon and I love this storage solution - best of all - this template comes with TWO different sized boxes, this is the smaller ribbon keeper which also stores embellishment containers - the larger one is perfectly sized for those big spools of ribbon. Enough chatter - you want to see how it works, right?!
Cute right?! Best of all, the ribbon keeper goes together so quick and easy. I've decorated mine simply with some punches and die cuts and I just love it.

Ready for another amazing storage solution?
This is the Menu Keeper....
I was so delighted when I saw this template - I can't tell you how long I've had all the stamps to make my recipe cards and just haven't bothered to use them - now I can organise all my favourite recipes cutely! This template comes with the box design, the interior dividers and also a stand for your recipe cards!
My box used just a couple of sheets of cardstock and ONE sheet of 12x12 paper - love that! Best of all, this template isn't just for recipe cards - you could use it to sort photos, as a card organiser, or how about somewhere attractive to store all those pesky bills that seem to always fill your mailbox?

You can get the templates now at Creations by AR....
....but how about a chance to win the template of your choice for FREE?! Simply leave a comment on this post and one lucky person will win their choice of ribbon or menu keeper!
