cReative Team Tuesday: Travel Mini Album with Nautical Chic

Once again, my Creativity Team just uplifts & inspiRes me!  This week, LOOK at what Melissa, of the Polkadot Chair, created with Rhonna Designs- Nautical Chic kits! WOW! the CUTEST Travel Mini Album!  **& notice how she incorporated the new Insta Lovin' kits in there, too! 

Seriously...I ADORE this!!! Go  over to her blog & check out how awesome her close ups are...& she tells you HOW she created it! 

And...the Summer is coming to an end (some sooner than others) & Creative Team Member, Rosemary, has created the cutest Printable Card HERE~

Isn't that fab? She used the cute globe from the Insta Love font!

Love love LOVE it!

so...GO, create! Happy Tuesday!

A glamping we will go....

What is Glamping you ask? Glam + Camping = Glamping. 

I got the bug. & I have Pinterest to blame for it. There's soooo much goodness over there in terms of visual inspiration...& I have been falling in LOVE with Glamping. 

I started to pin. & pin. & pin. & get more & more inspiRed!

Glamping is the perfect marriage of my love for decorating my space & Jeff's love for camping.

So....we started on a little adventure.  We looked on Craigslist, Ebay & our local classifieds: KSL.

This lovely tent is 495 pounds...wow. So...i started thinking...what about a travel trailer?

Vintage travel trailers are tricky...we KNEW we'd have to fix it up & it would be trashed. So, we were expecting a lot of work...but, we knew we needed good 'bones.'  I fell in LOVE with the old vintage Shastas. oh my.

But, they are more expensive that what I wanted to pay...I really wanted to only pay about as much as that tent. Fix it up just enough to have fun glamping...not a full restoration project.  

More like what  Pocket full of Whimsy did here:

Loved this inspiration...so, we looked at a bunch...narrowed it down to what we wanted: size, price, amenities, etc. And,on Saturday morning, we went & checked out the one that fit everything we wanted.

We saw her. 

& bought her. & brought her home.

I've been prepping her, washing her & today I'm ready to paint her. Here's a lil Insty 'Before'.

I'll save the really heinous Befores for the wonderful Afters. *wink*

But, for now...I'll be busy...Thanks, Pinterest! I'm going to cReate!

Insta Quotes= inspiRation

I LOVE good quote art. One of my fave things is to peruse Pinterest & see all of the fabulously uplifting & inspiring quotes to jump start my day!  This was the inspiration behind my new Insta Quotes. Pre-designed quotes offered in a TTF font, black PNG files AND ABR brush/stamps.  So many ways to use them to be uplifted & inspired!

So, I used some of the Insta LOVE brushes (since they are large & crisp) to accent the Insta Quotes & create 8x8 works of quote art. I am printing them out to frame. I want a whole wall filled with these fun signs! I added the Insta Lovin' Frames to these images to show you, but that would be cool to ad for smaller versions of these! Think Big! Get Creative. Have fun & enjoy the pRocess! 

Happy Friday...can't WAIT for the Olympics tonight! I"m a sucker for the whole world coming together for the Opening Ceremonies..I get the chills! heehee...I'll be on my couch, chillin! *wink*
