2013 Desk Calendar

Another quick and easy gift idea for Christmas or a birthday in the New Year – a desk calendar. Made from one sheet of A4 cardstock, some Bazzill Basics cardstock and some scrapbooking paper, with just a few embellishments to decorate.

The A4 cardstock has just a few folds in it to create the desktop calendar. Cut some cardstock and paper to glue/tape to the front. I used the corners from the Spellbinders Antique Frames and Accents die set behind the calendar. The flourishes are from Marianne Creatables Anja’s Flowers.

I embellished with some roses and cherry blossoms from Green Tara.

May Card Challenge

Colours of Autumn The challenge for May is colours of Autumn. I love Autumn in the UK where I grew up, with all the crispy leaves on the ground and bare trees. I do miss that, as we just don't get it here in QLD (although I don't miss the cold LOL). So with that in mind, I thought it would make a good challenge...those gorgeous colours of autumn...oranges, yellows, greens and browns. It doesn't have to be an autumn themed card, just those colours. This one should take you out of your comfort zone and get you thinking :) TO ENTER: Simply make a card, scrapbooking page or other project following the theme and give it to me, email me a picture, or a link to your project. Competition closes at midnight on Tuesday 28th May Voting will commence on Wednesday 29th May and will finish Saturday 2nd June. The winner will be announced as soon as possible after that date THE RULES: The rules are very simple and are as...

Just for Mother's Day

I am miles behind with posting some of the cards we've been making so I'm going to try and make an effort to catch up over the next week or so. To start with here is a card we made for Mother's Day. I got the inspiration from the 3D picture, which I felt would look good as two separate components on the card. The one on the inside of the card is the base image and the one of the front is the rest of the image made up into a 3D. I also gave my students the option of making this a birthday card, for those who don't have a Mum anymore or who had already made a Mother's Day card. I printed the verses on the computer for the girls.
