Make sure you visit the Idea Room to know what a summer can is all about.  I’m going to show you how I printed the vinyl and then share a little summer printable with you.  Sound good? Ok….. let’s get started!  Note: each printer is different and has various settings.  Test out your printer’s settings to see what works best for you.

Using a standard 8.5×11″ piece of paper as a guide, cut a sheet of plain white vinyl.   Tape (I used Duct tape) the vinyl sheet to a piece cardstock for sturdiness.

Fun Printable Mother’s Day Card times 2

>>> May 6, 2013 By

Mother’s Day is this week!  Hard to believe that 14 years ago I found out ON Mother’s Day that I was going to be a mom.  Growing up we made breakfast in bed for my Mom and gave her some (usually handmade) gifts.  We’ve continued the tradition in my family and now I’m the one getting breakfast in bed and some cute treats.  This year I created some simple little cards that could be attached to whatever gift you buy or make for your Mom.

>>> February 27, 2013 By

On Facebook I recently asked if people were going to decorate for St. Patrick’s day and Easter or just spring in general.  This year the holidays are so close together so I’m going to spend my energy on making my house more focused on spring than try to get it all done in under two weeks.  Because I might still have my Valentine’s day decor up….and it’s now well over two weeks.  Shhhhhh…..
I spent some time trying to find ideas that would make my house cheery and colorful.  Here’s what I found:
