DIY: Planner Divider

Hello Lovelies!!!  Today, I am bringing you a DIY Planner divider or bookmark. I used some My Style Stamps to create a happy Bookmark for my planner.  I picked up a laminator from Office Depot last week and had to play with it!! 

You can create any size to accommodate your planner.  I just marked a few holes and used a regular hole punch to create the holes and then snipped each one.  This way the divider is removable from week to week. 

I also created a tab at the top that is easy to grab, to get right to your spot. 

I did notice from all the layers I used I ran it through the laminator in different directions several times until it contoured the shape of my divider.  Then trimmed it out. Oh yeah, punch your holes at the very end after its all laminated!  ;-) 

Thanks for stopping by!

Boo!

Hey there!!!  Today, I am bringing you a super cute Halloween card featuring Newtons Nook Designs Stamps!  This one is an oldie but a goody!!!  I used the cute Ghost Newton from the "Boo Crew" stamp set. I guess it's not too early to start making Halloween cards since August is almost over.  

I started off with a Jillibean soup paper pad that I found at Tuesday Morning. Which means it's last years paper...but, who cares right? Still cute??!!   I cut a few on a diagonal and covered the front of the card base.  I left a small portion blank for the sentiment.  I decided I wanted Newton to scare you and peek out of the card. With a circle punch, I created this peek a boo area. To finish it off I used some twine and a few sequins. 

I hope you have enjoyed my card and head on over to Newton's Nook Designs for other Halloween stamp sets to get your paws inky!

A Watercolor BookMark

Good Morning!!!  Just in case you are not in the My Style Stamps Facebook Fan Group. I shared this fun watercolored bookmark for back to school! This project is featuring a BRAND NEW stamps set that will be released Saturday, August 22, 2015 along with other amazing stamps! 

For this book mark I used watercolor paper and stamped in Staz On ink.  I colored each section and let dry before moving on to the next section so colors would not bleed into each other.  You could of also embossed the stamped image to have color wells to hold the color in. 

I hope you enjoyed my project!!

Newton's Nook Designs August Release - Day 2

Welcome to Day 2 of the Newton's Nook Designs August Release! Today, we are featuring "Tranquil Tides".  This is a fun bold stamp set, just waiting to be inked up!  

I decided to go with a shaker card for this set. I stamped with Delicata Gold Ink and covered in clear embossing powder and heat set.  Then, I lightly spritz some Distress Spray down on a kraft sheet and then dabbed my background on it and did this over and over until I achieved the perfect look.  Since, the gold stamped images are embossed they resist the ink. I added my sentiment when the background was completely dry.  Here comes the fun part, gather up all your favorite sequins, I chose blues and aquas to match.  then seal the card up with acetate and foam tape.  I added two more embossed stamped images to the outside for a dimensional look.
