GSLC Perpetual Calendar

How wonderful that you stopped over today to see what is new with our projects on the blog.  I found a really neat Perpectual Calendar in the store last week and thought i had just enough time to make one up for this new year to try and stay organized.  It's a super great set in that it contains the box and all the tags for the dates and months and weeks.  And all the chippies to put on them.  It's amazing and was a really fun set to create with.

And I just bought a brand new line of paper from Prima that was filled with antique roses in gorgeous shades of pink and rose so i thought it would be perfect to use.  Above you can see all the days of the week chippies and the tags that i used for each of them.  And the paper line comes with lots of other goodies and you could really have fun decorating each of them.  Be sure and stay flat though because you only have so much room in the file box for each of the tags.

I am going to search around for more fun things to add on my tags but this is a good start :)

 I used this water colored pink paper for the numbers.  I had a super cute die cut that the numbers fit on perfectly and did them in white so that the numbers would stand out more.

And here is a quick view of the box and the different compartments it has for the tags.  I painted the box a vintage white first and then i traced and cut pieces of the paper to fit on the outside and inside layers.  I adore cabbage roses so I am very happy with the way this came out.  I hope you like it too!

Have a wonderful weekend...   Teresa

Keepin up with dates

It has been a busy week this week with lots of things

going on around the house and working on 

samples.  I found some things that I did a while back

to share of some calendars that I did for a class.  It was

really fun and once you start making them you can't stop

and they are perfect for gifts.  You can download free

calendars online to put on them or some SVG files

have some great ones to print out for projects too.

I did one of these that was similar

at CHA once and loved having it on my desk

for a quick date reference so I came up

with the bunch of them using chipboard

and some of my Spellbinders Dies.

This one was the favorite.. I love red

gingham too and of course butterflies.

 This one is just 2- 6x6 pieces of chipboard

decorated with a little bit of recipe paper

and a cute little red dotted bow for the top.

The one above is 6 pieces of 6x6 folded in

half and then you glue them together and

you can put a photo on the top and the calendars

all around at the bottom for the year.

The neat thing is you can flatten it and mail

it to someone special for a gift.. Really cute right?

And my last one I want to share is a chipboard

triangle to put on a desk.  The papers are from

Bo Bunny and on the sides you can't see are places

for 2 pictures.  I thought this would be really nice

because you could change it around every once

in a while to change it up.  

Thats all for today and hopefully I will have

some good news to share on friday!! Thanks

so much for stopping by and have a really 

wonderful day....  Teresa
