Shades Of Color Art {Review & Giveaway}


I love small business owners.
It's probably why I am obsessed with Etsy.

Did you know that my wedding invitations, party favors, bouquets, boutonnieres, hairpiece, bridal party gifts, mother/MIL gifts, father/FIL gifts and some other items all came from Etsy?

Ryan said our wedding kept Etsy shop owners in business.

Back in December I ordered a planner from Maybooks. I LOVE Maybooks and have ordered from them many times...
...however, I came to find out, their planners do not suffice when it comes to my blogging. They don't give me enough room and so every week I have panic attacks because of the scribbly mess.

Enter: Stephanie from Shades Of Color Art

I don't even remember how we found each other. But then I stalked her and found her shop.
She is a very talented artist - creating both paintings...
And Planners!!!

When she heard about my planner dilemma she offered to create a new planner for me!


I was SO excited when it finally came.
She had painted it and created it to be exactly what I asked for.


Monthly calendars up front

 
My Wifessionals "W" on the lower corner of blank pages


And 3 PAGE WEEKS!!!!
I have plenty of room to take notes now!
I also love that you date the weeks yourself, meaning you can start using this planner whenever.

Stephanie will basically create any planner you would like. She talks to you about colors, monograms or writing, how many days per page you want, and any other items you can think of!

I love the front & back of mine and how they coordinate.

Stephanie saved my organization with this planner!
And she wants to help you out too!

She is giving one Wifessionals reader a $15 gift certificate to her shop.
You can use that towards a free planner or notebook of your choice!
Don't need a planner, but LOVE her paintings?

All her paintings are currently 30% off and have free shipping.
You could use the $15 towards one of those as well!!


The contest will run from 1/23 - 1/25, 11:59pm EST.
It is open to US Residents.
Please use the Rafflecopter below to gain entries!


*I received this planner as a gift in exchange for my honest review. No other compensation was provided.
