November 2016 Calendar Page

Here's my calendar page design for this month.

I die-cut felt and burlap using Crafter's Companion Die'sire Mixed Media Dies - Autumn Leaves and Contemporary Hearts die sets. These Mixed Media Dies are ah-mazing! They can be used on a variety of surfaces as they will cut up to 1.4mm deep. Die cutting felt and burlap was a breeze!

I added Stick-It Adhesive to the back of the materials before die-cutting. Then it was simple to just stick the pieces down on the calendar page. A little green crystal rhinestone was the perfect finishing touch.

Have a beautiful day,

September 2016 Calendar Page

Happy Friday friends!

I've been so busy with EVERYTHING lately. How about you? I finally got a chance to get this months calendar page posted for you to see. Check it...

Since most schools are back in session by September, I decided this page would be encouragement to achieve. I'm loving how it turned out! Here's how I made it:

1. Stamp image from Textures - Journal Jotting stamp set, using Chipped Saphire Distress Ink.
2. Stamp sentiment from Sentimentals - Ornate stamp set, using Fired Brick Distress Ink.
3. Stamp images from Sentimentals - Ornate stamp set, using Scattered Straw Distress Ink. Add Yellow stickles glitter glue to some of the stamped areas. Set aside to dry.
4. Die-cut the small bird and wing from Just For Men Paper Pad Brights Collection. Use GB4 Spectrum Noir Marker color in the stars on the wing piece.
5. Sponge Chipped Saphire ink around edges of wing, and Fired Brick ink around edged of bird.
6. Adhere wing and rhinestone to bird body. Attach bird to calendar page using dimensional foam tape.

Isn't it great how you can "Achieve" a fantastic little design with just a few stamps, dies and inks? You could used this design for a card front too!
