Coupons, My Pinterest Inspiration and more :)

Coupons... Inspiration... yah, it must be Sunday! Getting ready for the crafty week ahead ;) What to make?! what to make?! Well, I have found some ideas for you! 

Let's look at some Pinterest inspiration first, that way when we get to the bottom for the coupons, we will know what we are just HAVING to buy :) If you are on pinterest, you can find me here on PINTEREST. I'd love to have you follow me and follow you back! You never know, maybe you can get featured also! If you'd like to have something that you made on my blog, let me know! I love Link Love :) 






So first, on pinterest, I LOVE this tag and this is so my creative style. Wanna get that neat finish?

You can learn how to create this Faux Tarnished Metal look 






Then there are some free printables for you..... Click on image, and then right click and choose save as
You can also go and get more :) She finds them all on Flickr. Have you tried that? I hate looking for personal use vs. commercial use, lol. Too much work sometimes. You can also get free printable collage sheets here too! Not sure about the TOU so you will have to check that out. 






And I just LOVE LOVE LOVE this Scrapbook Layout from Prima !!!! Isn't it gorgeous?! I love the clothesline style and the concept. I have done this before, and it comes out great! And it looks so detailed!

And now there's a tutorial to create these victorian inspired cones.... which are really popular right now ;) 





This is actually pretty neat. It's a tutorial on how to stencil with a doily and a sharpie. However, I think I thought of an easier way that should also take less time..... Lay down  your doily onto where you want your design. Then you will ink it with your ink pad. Similar to when you sponge paint. I think a smaller ink pad would work better. These would be neat to do this and then trim around to make a tag.... oh boy! Guess what I am doing today! lol :)

There's a cute little card making tutorial here - Very simple and great for a beginner. 






And here's an easy way to decorate a mason jar lid - And it's a GREAT way to use up all those paper scraps! You're going to use little paper strips anyways :) I always save mine in a little bag and when the kids complain that they are bored, I make them punch little shapes out of the paper! lol :D
