It's a Date!

I can't believe it. I just saw some selection boxes in Tesco! It's only September for Pete's sake!!

That also must mean that New Year is just around the corner too though sooooo.....calendars!!!

I was crafting at the weekend, and have only now had a chance to put the creations on here. I made 4 calendars to give to friends at work {well 1 is mine and 3 others are to give to friends}. I have another couple still to make, but am v.pleased with the results so far. Here they are....

The calendars are made from 6 x 6 cards, scored and folded to make the calendar base.

The first one is a Sugar Nellie stamp from Funky Kits I love this image of the girl with her cat {this one be my calendar}. The image is coloured with my Promarkers, mounted onto lilac cardstock. I have added some Forever Friends backing paper to the card and mounted the image onto it. I made the swirls with a Sizzix die cut 'Scribbles Swirls' out of the same card as the backing on the image. I then added a few flowers from my stash, and voila - there you have it. I'm thinking I might have to add a bit of my 'new best friend' to them {aka Glamour Dust lol}, just to give them a bit of bling!

The above calendar is made the same was as above. This image is from Designs by Leere (from Stampavie) and is coloured with my Koh-i-noor pencils.

The above calendar is made the same way again. This image is from Flower Fairies and was a freebie stamp with a magazine {sorry - can't remember which one}, it is a great stamp and very detailed and is also coloured with my Koh-i-noor pencils.


The last one {also made same way as above - can hear an echoooo in the room} is another Sugar Nellie stamp from Funky Kits, coloured with my Promarkers.

I hope you like my calendars, and thanks for looking. Please leave a comment to let me know you paid a visit!

Thanx - luv n hugs
