Happy National No Housework Day!!


Housework? What's housework?!  We know not what that word means around here. :)

Just ask my Scarlet:
Yep.  We definitely can get behind this holiday here at Flamingo Scraps!!  So in honor of this fabulous holiday, we have a couple of layouts and projects to share with ya today....

Product details here.

You can't argue with Suzanne's cat!!!!!  No housework for her today -- can't cook, can't clean, can't wash dishes!!!!  She'll be scrapping instead!!!!!  So will Cindy, since she's got the cutest cleaning crew in town to do the housework for her....
From Flamingo Scraps: Stickles
Other Supplies: Bazzill cardstock, Scenic Route patterned paper, Heidi Swapp letters, BasicGrey chipboard, Folk Art paint, American Crafts pen

And finally, what better way to celebrate than with this fabulous hard working bottle of dawn?
Well....
I should clarify....
I meant to say with Tonya's fabulous bottle of dawn!
From Flamingo Scraps:  Prima (patterened paper, say it in pearls and lace, mini roses), Distress Inks
Other Supplies: Acrylic Paint, Crackle Medium, Seam Binding in Cream & Brown, Cameo, Feathers, Cork

Yep.  I want THIS altered bottle of dish soap!

Don't you?!  Well guess what... it can be YOURS!!!  Along with these fabulous Maya Road goodies from our store:
All you have to do is leave us a comment on this blog post telling us how you'll be celebrating No Housework Day!!  And then go hop along to your next stop....

    Well you know, today I'm going out for lunch with my hubby and daughter - so I'm not making lunch (or cleaning up afterwards!) I think that's a great way to celebrate 'No Housework'!

    Happy Saturday :)

    That dish soap bottle is super cute! I love the details throughout, especially the "duster" and the pearls around her neck. :))

    What a great dawn cover! I could definately use the excuse that I couldn't find it therefore the dishes are not done! I opted for gardening this weekend - no housework!
