Paper Sweeties July 2016 BLAST FROM THE PAST!


Welcome back for Day #2 
of 
Paper Sweeties 
Blast From The Past!

The Paper Sweeties Design Team are sharing 
our favorite Paper Sweeties cards 
that we've made from the past!

Nancy Salkeld (You are HERE!)

My past is kind of short, seeing as I just joined in January, but I still had a hard time choosing just 3 of my favorites!

 Today I'm sharing another wintry snowman card.  This is by far one of my favorite PS DT cards I've made so far.  I love the watercolored background and the "snowing" hearts falling into the wagon!  





If you haven't heard yet, Paper Sweeties is celebrating a
 4th Birthday in August!

WooHoo!

Be sure and stay tuned so you don't miss a thing!

PAPER SWEETIES BLESSINGS!

Paper Sweeties July 2016 BLAST FROM THE PAST!

Hello Crafty Friends!


Today is the first day 
for 
Paper Sweeties 
July Blast From The Past!

We are taking a little summer break, 
so for the next three days, 
the PS Design Team 
will be sharing
their favorite creations from the past.

So hop through the list below 
to see what each team member has shared:

Nancy Salkeld (You are HERE!)

I've only been on the PS Design Team since January, 
so for my first "blast from the past", 
I chose my first project as a DT,
from the 
January 2016 Inspiration Challenge---

A winter snowglobe shaker birthday card! 


 While it's not really a Christmas card, how about a cool wintry breeze in the middle of July?  I think most of us could use a little arctic blast about now, am I right? LOL

I used the Snowglobe Sweet Chips kit along with several other Paper Sweeties stamps and dies and Paper Sweeties sequins, all of which are listed below.  My mom's birthday is in January and so I made this particularly for her.  I chose to make it monochromatic for a more cool, wintry feel.  





Don't forget about our July Inspiration Challenge going on now also through the end of the month!  Come play along and maybe be our next winner!

Come back tomorrow for another "oldie but goodie" and mark your calendars for Paper Sweeties' 4th Birthday coming in August!  You don't want to miss any of the festivities!

Paper Sweeties Blessings!

Paper Sweeties Plan Your Life Series - July 2016!


Hello Crafty World!
It's been a while for me to post,  12 days to be exact.  This summer has turned out to be wildly hectic and I have had little time to stamp and craft other than for Paper Sweeties DT.

My mom is moving and I've been in one state helping her pack.  We are at my house in NC for a couple days and then we will drive to SC to her new home and help her unpack!  WHEW!  

But I digress!  

Today is Paper Sweeties Plan Your Life Day--
showcasing planners for July!  

Check out all the Plan Your Life Stamps in the PS Boutique! 
Hop along to see what the rest of the Planner Team has done with theirs below:

I recently purchased a new planner, an 18 month one, that begins this month (July).  It has a full month at a glance and then it has two full pages for each week, providing large spaces for each day to plan out in more detail.  I like this a lot because I'm a BIG list maker and am ALWAYS planning my day with lists.  So now, I can either use these pages to jot down daily or a week at a time to add things that come up as they come up.  I love the pastel colors of the planner too!



If you haven't gotten into the craze yet but would like to, you can even purchase the Paper Sweeties Digital Planner at the Paper Sweeties Boutique!

Make sure you play along with us in the Paper Sweeties Monthly Inspiration Challenge also.  You might be our next winner and will receive not only a $25 gift certificate to the Paper Sweeties Boutique but also will get a Guest Designer spot in a future Inspiration Challenge!  



And mark your calendar/planner -----

Paper Sweeties celebrates 
its
4th Birthday
in 
August!


WOOHOO!

Starting August 1st there will be 
LOTS of BIG things happening 
at 
Paper Sweeties!

You don't want to miss any of it!



Paper Sweeties Blessings!

Paper Sweeties Inspiration Challenge - July 2016

Happy Friday!

Happy July 4th Weekend, America!

July starts today!

A new monthly challenge begins at
Paper Sweeties too!

Check out our current challenge inspiration:
Hop over to all the Design Team's blogs and check out their fabulous inspiration!



Last month was ended on a crazy note for me.  My mom is moving from WV to SC and last week (two weeks before her move), the move she thought she hired, backed out!  So, this week I scrambled quickly to go up from NC to help her pack her entire house before her closing (now in 6 days)!  Luckily she has another mover, but it's good I came up and will have her 95% packed when the movers get here!  Oh what a mess!  lol

Then, I will drive her in her car down to NC for a few days and then on to SC to close and unpack!  July is going to be a busy, busy month!

So, with all that I didn't get to finish a new card for this month's inspiration challenge.  So I'm re-cycling one from last month's Release.  Once I'm home again I will spend a couple days relaxing and stamping and will finish the new one to share.
Make sure to come back on July 13th for our Planner Series and then July 14-16th we will feature a PS Favorites where all the Designers will feature their favorite PS cards from the past that they've made.  

 Come play along with us this month in the Inspiration Challenge.  You could be our next winner!


Now I'm off to continue packing! 
Paper Sweeties Blessings!
