Rainy diy, w/Free Printable

Yesterday was rainy. ALL day. But, I am not complaining! It is a welcomed change from the snow we got last weekend, yes in May! Sometimes I wonder why we live in such a cold climate where we really only get to enjoy summer weather for 3-4 months of the year.
Anyways, I decided to get my decorating and DIY'ing on since it's been awhile and came up with some cute chalkboard prints for my kitchen!
And since Im so awesome, I am going to link the download for them for FREE below. Your welcome. Feel free to share the love ;)

I created these using photoshop in an 8x10 size. (Standard US Paper size, aka, you can use regular printer paper OR photo paper from the dollar store!)
I just used some picture frames I had bought a long time ago and never used from the Dollarama store for $1.25 and painted them with black acrylic paint. I suggest using something a bit bigger than these though as I had to trim them up quite a bit, and even though I created a white matte border around them, after I cut them to fit inside the frames, the matte  border didn't show. So I ended up cutting a paper border with just regular printer paper. Nothing fancy over here peeps! And if you look closely at the top picture, the border I made cut off the text :(
Just use a bigger frame and save yourself the trouble!

Text was cut off in top picture!

The first one is because, well, it made me smile. The second one I created because I am forever trying to figure out conversions in the kitchen and I run around like a made women from the computer to the kitchen to figure them out!
So to grab these two printable's you can go HERE and HERE!
And if you used them, I would LOVE to see photos in your lovely homes! AND make sure to share them with your friends!
Sharing is caring! (At least thats how the saying goes ;)
HAPPY SATURDAY!

Busy week!

Last week was my husbands *insert age here* birthday, along with my other weekly tasks I was busy preparing for that! He always down plays his birthday, he is not big on making it a big deal, but I like to make a big deal out of birthdays! Not just because it's a birthday, but it's a day to really appreciate that special someone in your life and spoil them! Let them know how much you love having them in your life! :) So when I asked him what kind of cake he wanted, I usually bake whatever HE wants, he thought he would make it easier for me and asked for an ice cream cake from dairy queen! Best husband ever or what?! This is how we spent our week :)

A rare moment of brotherly love!

Hub's birthday cake. It was this or Hello Kitty...

The shirt the boys made daddy, another Pinterest idea. He said it didnt really massage, but he was pretty stoked they made it and wished they had drawn on the front cause he wanted to show it off!

It turned out to be a really good weekend, just a chillaxed quality time with Daddy kind of weekend! :) Now I'm off to finish some blog orders and check out, cause this week is equally as busy with Easter coming up, ahhhhh!
