4 Season Easel Calendar with video & free project sheet

January 6, 2025

Today I'm sharing a super special 4-season calendar card. I cased one I made 10 years ago! We made this at my December card clubs.

Save

I stamped the background with the Sparkling Snowflakes set in Pool Party & Pretty Peacock inks.

It looks like an ordinary card front doesn't it? It actually is with the exception of the latch I added.

Save

This latch is slipped under the calendar on the inside of the card. The reason why I choose the inside is so it doesn't show on the bottom. I hope you'll watch the video here or below to see how it's done.

For the Spring season I used the Spotlight on Nature stamp set and colored with Blends markers.

Save

My smart husband created the calendar for this project. You can access the 2025 calendar here. And the 2026 Calendar here *However you will need to scale your printer to 90% instead of the usual 100%. *please don't ask me how to do this; each printer is different.

For the Summer season I used the Round we Go set in Lemon Lime Twist, Azure Afternoon and Petunia Pop inks.

For the last season I chose to use a layer of designer series paper (Nests of Winter). In hindsight I could have used DSP on every season. It would save a ton of time if you're making a bunch at a time.

Below is the video tutorial for this card; it's helpful to get the tips to make your creating easier. Don't forget to follow me on Facebook here or my YouTube Channel here.

Sneak Peek of new products with a sketch for inspiration

October 27, 2025
On last week’s video I shared three cards featuring a new designer paper coming out in November. It’s called Brushed with Beauty.

Save

My colors include Very Vanilla, Mossy Meadow & Calypso Coral. The stamp & dies bundle is called Words of Beauty and is part of the Brushed with Beauty suite. Demonstrators (& new team members) are able to order it early but you can see and order these new products on November 4th. They’re part of our Online Exclusives – new products released every other month.

This layout was inspired by a sketch. Every month my Flowerbug’s have a creative challenge involving sketches or a color combo. This will be our November sketch inspiration. Sketches are a fabulous start to creating a card or scrapbook page. And they’re just an inspiration. As you can see I did not use a circle but the die from the Label Me Grateful dies seen here. I also flipped the center rectangle on it’s side.

Save

The Words of Beauty bundle will be a great option for greeting phrases. It includes two large sets of dies with the words ‘just’ and ‘because’ and then plenty of words to create your greeting. Plus the die I used with the word ‘because’ below is one of three in the package.

You’ll notice the new packaging in the photo below. All new stamps & dies will be in these envelopes. Also all new stamps will be clear photopolymer and not red rubber.

Save

Here’s the free project sheet for this card; click here to print or download it. Did you know I have a category at the top of my blog where you can see lots of these? They’re great inspiration and include many fun fold cards.

Save

I hope you’ll try this sketch layout. It’s a fun one! When you do, please share your project in my FB group here. We love seeing what everyone makes!
