No Place Like Home...

Happy Weekend!

One card today before I'm off on a little road trip ---

I did a little watercolor play.  I took a brick emboss folder, smooshed some Mustard Seed on it, spritzed with water and rubbed it on watercolor paper.  Then, I stamped the shoes using some Barn Door, spritzed the stamp with a little water then stamped it on the bricks.  I added the sentiment stamped in Versafine Black Onyx. I die cut the stamped panel and black panel with a rectangle stitched die from Little Inkers Designs and added glitter to the shoes to finish it off.  The shoe stamp and sentiment are both from Stampendous.

I used the sparkler stamp in the stamp set I Love Summer, to make embossed dandelions blowing in the wind on a painted background.

Summer Re-Do

Here's a little sneak peek of my own ---



Part of our "staycation" involved a little painting and redecorating of my craft room.  Hubs ordered me a wall cabinet and an extra floor cabinet for much needed extra storage space!  The wall color is Aloha from Home Depot. It's a tad darker in person but still really bright and refreshing! I kept my pink rug and pink ceiling fan too!  

Lots still to do.  It's far from finished yet, but it's just soooo much more refreshing and roomier and already a creativity boost!  Watch for more posts to come in the near future as the room comes together!  Just don't ask about the state of the rest of the house!  I'll give you one hint ---- we haven't been able to sleep in our bed or the guest bed for two nights so far!  ;)  Good thing my son's room still has a bed. I did discover through this that I could never live like a hoarder (except for my paper hoarding, of course)!  LOL

Paper Sweeties Plan Your Life Series - June 2016


Good Morning Monday!
It's that time again---
Paper Sweeties Planner Seris!

Today we are sharing our June planners
with new planner stamps 
that will be for sale
on June 15th,
at
Paper Sweetie's Release Party!


Below is my planner -


I have a hanging calendar my son gave me for Christmas with photos of his puppy (and himself) for each month.  I have it hanging in my craft room and so I decided this month to share it.  We don't have a lot going on this month other than relaxin and chilling --- as you can see!  LOL  A few weekend trips, but a couple of those are just road trips driving my mom from her home in WV to my brother's in Myrtle Beach.  

Our 26th Anniversary was June 9th and so the Hubs took that week off and we had a "stay"cation just being very lazy at home.

Check out the rest of the PS Planner Team's planners for more inspiration!  I love how different each one is!
