christmas cards.

i thought i'd share some christmas cards i've "cased." this first one, however, is not "cased." Ü

this christmas stamp set is kind of old, i know, but i still like it. i used cherry cobbler, wild wasabi, early espresso, & crumb cake.

this card is my version of one i saw here.

and here is my version of this card. i forgot to add the bling before i took the picture...oops! Ü

and finally here is my version of this card. Ü

thanks for stopping by!

flower.

as promised, here are the instructions for the flower i used for the aug. page of my calendar.

first, punch out 2 scalloped circles. you can use more and you can use bigger ones too...just depends on how full or how big you'd like your flower to be. Ü

next, score all your scallop circles from petal to petal. i used the score buddy to do this & it made it so easy.

my friend Tami gave this to me & i love it!

then, you will cut between 2 petals, just to the center.

accordian fold all of your scallop circles.

adhere your scallop circles to make a flower. i used sticky strip so they'd stay better.

then i just put a chocolate brad in the center & attached it to my page.

buttons would be cute in the center, too!

2011 calendar class, part 1.

here are the different month layouts we did at my calendar class ~ each month has a spot(s) for your personal pictures. above is jan. the snowflake has glitter on it...hard to tell from the picture.

feb. ~ the heart has polka dots from the texture folder for the big shot.

march ~ love the little bling!

april.

may. the satin ribbon is soooo elegant & pretty!

june. i made my own version of designer paper with my own scraps. i love the piece that looks sorta like this in the "elegant soiree" pack but since it just comes with 2 sheets per pack & i needed more like 14 sheets, i decided to make my own version...

next post will show the rest of the months... Ü
