Free Little Love Notes

As February comes to an end, I thought another free printable would be fun for my readers. You may remember the free "ABC I Love You" printable posted earlier this month. Feel free to get your copy if you didn't already.

This week I've created a set of Love Notes that you can share with your little someone special and even your big someone special! Slip a note in a lunchbox, place one on the bathroom mirror or maybe even leave one on the dashboard of your sweetie's car. Perhaps you'll even want to mail one or two for fun.

Click on the photo below for the printable image. Print on a regular 8.5" x 11" sheet of unlined paper and cut along the dotted lines. Enjoy!

(this printable is not for resale or mass production. for personal use only.)

Photo Mojo (photo challenge 2013 edition)

I've taken a month off from the photo challenge and have come to a conclusion: The 2012 Photo Challenge fueled my creativity! It's as if my creative mojo vanished in the night and I need to get it back. After discussing this "loss of creative mojo" with my husband and oldest son, I've but one realization... it's time to start another photo challenge. So without further delay I present for your creative boost, the 2013 February Photo Challenge! Wahoo! Who's with me?

For those of you who are new to the photo challenge, the rules are simple. 1. Take a photo-a-day based on the themes listed in the above photo. 2. Post that photo on Twitter, Instagram and/or on my flickr group. 3. Be sure to let me know when you post on Twitter/Instagram by using the hashtag #FebPic. If you're not already following me on Twitter and Instagram, please do! Let's get social.

This is suppose to be a fun challenge... no stress here. If you wanna join but worry you'll miss a day (or 12), not a problem. Take one subject/day at a time. If you miss some, you miss some!

Let me know if you you're joining the fun so I can look for your photos online. Just leave a comment below. Here's to bringing back some creativity!

Anyone is free to copy this image for use on your own blog, just be sure to credit / link my blog, please & thank you.

Love is in the Air...

"Love is an irresistible desire to be irresistibly desired."  ~Robert Frost


I have always loved Valentine's Day. I have fond memories of my childhood boyfriend who would buy me a book of Lifesavers every Valentine's Day and made sure to include a hand-made love note as well. I loved the smell of the small candy hearts with saying like "Be Mine" on them. And my best friend and I would make homemade cinnamon rock candy and hot toothpicks. Then we would challenge each other to see who could hold the hot toothpick in their mouth the longest. I never won.


Valentine's Day is a romantic holiday for many, but it's a terrifically fun holiday for kids as well. This year at Easton Place Designs I've created a candy alternative to give kids... Personalized Wall Art. That's not to say you shouldn't give your littlest sweetheart a little piece of candy this coming Valentine's Day, but give them something that's personal and lasting too! 

 

In the shop you'll also find fun, personalized labels that can be used for anything from book plates to Valentine  goodie bag labels. 


And for the tween/teen in your life I have several designs of personalized stationery that are a lovely way to say "I love you".


As always, if you're looking for a special card to write your own words of adoration in, my card shop is sure to have something just right for the occasion!

Wishing you and all your special Valentines a lovely day of adoration and sweetness!
