DSD p&co blog hop

we're celebrating DSD! time for all us crazy, fun & lovable scrapbookers to celebrate with a blog hop & awesome sales! we have a fun one today at P&Co too. Check out this awesome kit you can pick up when you complete the blog hop & enter the secret code in the shop...

ummmm, hello! yes, you can say it... it's FREAKIN' AWESOME!!! so lucky I get to create with THE BEST designers around... & lucky you to get this kit for free :) {you'll get more on that soon} but first...

Do you have a smartphone? I know it may seem like a silly question, but hey, there are some that still don't. Mine is practically permanently attached to my side. lol. But really, I use it for a lot. I love creative apps & am a die hard Instagrammer. {want to follow me? my user name is robynmeierotto} It's like my mini scrapbook. I share inspiring quotes, pictures of my life, my weight loss & healthy eating journey, my creative career & business. It's a huge mash up of about everything that concerns my life. I love it & I've met so many amazing people through it as well. So, I thought I'd share with you a few of my favorite apps... Instagram, of course, but a few others I use most frequently along with Instagram.

I use the Rhonna Designs app most every day to write on photos, add graphics, make up quotes. It's like mini photoshop for me. Pic Tap Go is basically high quality filters for your phone photos. You can layer them, control the intensity, another type of mini photoshop. {can you see a trend here?} The Studio app is one I just found last week. It's free & has sooo many cool things in it. You can use the ready made word art, or make your own & I'm sure so much more I haven't figured out yet. It works in layers, again, like photoshop. I'm in love already. Do you have some favorite creative apps for your phone? I'm always interested in new cool things like that!

ok, now. here's the deal-i-o...

featured designer week

I'm excited to say... this week I'm the featured designer along with the ever fab-u-lous Gennifer Bursett. Wait til you see what we've put together. I think it's pretty awesome. Since Gen is awesome with elements & I feel most inspired in the paper department, we split it up just like that.

hope you love it! I think it's lots of fun & I'll be using it over & over for many layouts of our summer. make sure to keep an eye on my pink trike design facebook page for some fun stuff daily throughout my featured designer sale!

I'm trying my best to hurry & get my work done for the day so I can hit the pool with the kids for a bit before stuff like a run, a shower, making supper, taking Evan to baseball practice & a school board meeting. We're at the beginning of another busy week. The last week of baseball, ending this weekend with a tournament & Evan's birthday on Sunday. Also a family reunion that we need to figure out how to make it to in between games. Should be lots of fun, but we'll be ready for some less-busy time soon {just in time for my busy July of design work!}. Have a great week!

iNSD p&co blog hop

we're celebrating iNSD! time for all us crazy, fun & lovable scrapbookers to celebrate with a blog hop & awesome sales! we have a fun one today at P&Co too. Check out this awesome kit you can pick up when you complete the blog hop & enter the secret code in the shop...

yep, you can say it... AWESOME!!! so lucky I get to create with THE BEST designers around... & lucky you to get this kit for free :) {you'll get more on that soon} but first...

check out some of these websites for some amazing eye candy. I'm not really that great at the tutorials that the rest of the girls are giving you, but I do pretty good at finding websites that are drool worthy if you're a design lover ;)

so, if you're into photography {or even if you're not} you have to check out the blog Seventy Tree. Makes me want to pull out my camera & create a composition in photo form of fun everyday stuff with my kids or just things around my house. a.maz.ing. really. makes me want to become a better photographer.

into project life with a side of fonts? I came across Design Editor a while back & love to see how different people aproach this project. I love her simple & clean approach. Makes me feel like I could really do it myself. She has some really kick arse font suggestions too. You know how designers love a good font...

& for a few great sites that combine inspiration for illustration, design, pattern, fonts & color? I could literally spend days on Super Swoon. It's just... swoon worthy. for real. just check it out, you'll see. I became aware of the print & pattern blog when I was taking an online pattern course about a year ago. I am obsessed with illustration & am always striving for more inspiration as I continue to build my style. So much goodness in one place.

I hope this gave you a few more places to check out that you'll love & have you pinning away very soon :)

now. on to business at hand...

want to know what's happening at P&Co for iNSD this year? here's the lowdown...

for iNSD celebrations, I wanted to offer you a little extra in addition to what the store is offering, just for my shop...

here's another sweet little goodie for you...if you place an order for prints at Persnickety Prints SATURDAY you'll get a free 5x7" print of this word art that I designed for Mother's Day. How cool is that? They really are the best out there. I was honored to be able to meet Chari {the boss lady at Persnickety} at the P&Co retreat & I can tell you honestly, that girl is passionate about her printing!

now... if you want to get the collab More or Less for FREE, here's what you'll need
