Hey there blog friends! Yay - I'm so glad it's Saturday. The weather's gotten chilly here again in Southern CA. Seems like it's back to winter! Well, I can't believe we're more than half way thru February already. Today's post is a great little project that'll help you keep track of the days - isn't this cute? I embellished this calendar with the rosette I posted in the tutorial here. This is such a quick and easy gift to make, I think you'll like it! I got the idea for this size of calendar from Sandy Hancock. This is just my take. Want directions?
Here you go:
{rosette calendar}
1. Score an 8 1/2" x 4 1/4" piece of cardstock at 2 1/8" and 4 1/4". Fold at the score lines
2. Stamp the flourish from the Bliss stamp set on the front flap (this is the side that has the 2 1/8" scoreline}
3. On the inside, layer a piece of 4" x 4" DSP.
4. Embellish the front flap with the rosette. I used the leaves from the Extra Large 2 Step Bird Punch and the Build a Blossom punch. Adhere the rosettes and leaves with mini glue dots and/or dimensionals.
5. Use linen thread to thread the holes of the button, then adhere to base of calendar using a glue dot.
6. Adhere the calendar in the right corner of the base. Viola! You're done!
Hope you enjoyed that project! Have a great President's day weekend! Bye for now! :)
