free name printables

aren't i the most awesome blogger, because of my freebies?

i'm totally kidding, but i am back with another freebie! 

this time it's a free customized name printable 

my free monogrammed iphone backgrounds were a huge hit this year so i decided to come up with something kind of similar! 

i absolutely love my name - that might sound weird but it's true! 

i don't know about y'all but i think it's adorable to frame a picture of your name in your room. so i've made the process super easy for you. 

multi-colored design w/ pink name

solid colored - pink

STEP 1:
pick a multi-color design or solid color

STEP 2:
pick a font from those below (1-5)

STEP 3:
A: if you want the multi-color one then you have to pick one of the color palettes listed below (1-4)
B: if you want the solid color then all you have to do is pick your favorite color -- I'll get as close as possible.

because i'm not quite sure how popular these are going to be i'm going to limit one graphic per person - so choose your combination wisely!
also i'm only going to make twenty-five of these for free, but if they're super popular then I will be posting a tutorial on popcosmo.

if you would like one of these free graphics, then please leave a comment with your combination

and your e-mail so i can send it to you when done

examples:

multicolor 

name - chloe (add last name if you would like it on the graphic & I'll see if it fits)

font selection - 3. governor 

color scheme - two 

youremail@gmail.com

solid color 

name - chloe (add last name if you would like it on the graphic)

font selection - 5. homestead

color - light green 

name/dots in light green 

youremail@gmail.com

if you would rather send me an e-mail with your combination that's totally fine! you can e-mail me at preppydiaries@gmail.com

thanks for reading!

pinterestingly enough, that was a fail

have you ever seen something on pinterest that was advertise as being "super easy to make" or "diy in under five"? if yes, then i feel ya. if not, what pinterest are you using? today, i stumbled across this super hilarious blog called pintester. basically she tries out all the popular repins, and sees how easy they actually are. most of them end up being a complete fail, and she tells you how easy hard these projects actually are. my mom and i have a website together called popcosmo so i get to see first hand how much trouble goes through taking the perfect picture! Sonja does a hilariously great job of showing the "behind the scenes" look at what it takes to get your project to the point of taking pictures! 

these are some of my favorite testers..

not only is this blog hilarious, but it reminds you why you never seem to do projects off of pinterest. 

it also inspires me to do a post on my pinterest fails.

i'm sure there could be tons of those.

have you had a pinterest fail?

thanks for reading!
