Easel Card Calendar

By
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL
It's been a while since I blogged properly although I have had a few scheduled posts and, after a dreadful end to my year I'm back feeling positive and in the mood to craft!
One of the last workshops I did before Christmas was a Make and Take where I demo'd an Easel Card Calendar - take a look


This is a 4" x 4" card base with the one half folded over, a piece of Midnight Muse card stock added to the folded half. Another piece of white card stock is layered onto this and stamped and decorated. I made a mini calendar on my computer and printed it off, cut it to size and added it to the bottom of the card - more decoration was added.
The beauty of this project is that it can be folded flat to go in an envelope to be posted


Materials
Stamps: Flowering Flourishes
Ink: Gumball Green
Card Stock: Whisper White, Midnight Muse, Summer Starfruit
Accessories: Basic pearls
Other: Home Made Calendar
(All of the Stampin' Up products listed above can be ordered through me - see details above)

I have 5 Easel Card Calendar kits to give away - leave me a comment below with your e-mail address and the first 5 will receive a kit in the post - Jacqueline xx

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr

 I have decided to try and get on top of my Christmas cards early this year and so far it’s going well!!! Here is a card that has been made using the Sweet Gingerbread set - I love gingerbread houses and the stamps and matching dies are really cute. I used the sketch from  52 Christmas Card Throwdown  - this is a brilliant Christmas challenge blog (I started it many years ago with Mynn Kitchen) and it’s a perfect way to get organised with Christmas crafting. Thank for stopping by today - see you soon - J xx
