Easel Calendar with a post-it note box; a fabulous gift idea

I love these Easel calendars; they're a great gift and actually fun to make too.  I was inspired by my friend Melissa's project; see it here.  

Rainbow of Happiness Sunshine & Rainbow calendar Save

Easel Calendar card measurements

  • Card base 4 ¼” X 11” scored at 5 ½”.
  • Easel 4” X 4” scored at ½”, 2” & 3 ½”
  • DSP 4” X 5 ¼” (or 3 1/2" X 5 1/4" on the above project)
  • Note box 4” X 5 1/8” scored at 3/8” on the short side.  On the long side score at 2 3/8” & 2 ¾”

Rainbow of Happiness Sunshine & Rainbow calendar Save

Here are some details:

  • The unique scallop edges & cute tag are both made with the Brilliant Rainbow dies – it's part of the Rainbow of Happiness bundle. 
  • The large clouds are punched with our new Cloud Punch. One is punched from the Supple Shimmer specialty paper and the other from the Sunshine & Rainbows DSP/ It's free during our Sale-a-Bration promotion. See it here. 
  • The bright striped paper is also from our Sunshine & Rainbows DSP
  • The card stock colors are Bermuda Bay & Melon Mambo
  • The calendars were purchased from Taylored Expressions. 

Here are the other two I shared using the Friendly Hello bundle from our Sale-a-Bration promotion:

Friendly Hello Easel Calendar Tropical Layers Save

Totally different looks from the same Friendly Hello designer paper.  You can go soft or bold with it! 

On the top right I added the stamped image from the Friendly Hello stamp set (part of the free bundle during SAB) and on the top left I added a few die-cuts from the Tropical Layers dies seen here.  I think they coordinate wonderfully.

  • Incredible Sweet Citrus cards by Karen – lots of ‘Wow’s’!

    Karen was our Team Artist of the Month in April and she knocked it out of the park! I cannot believe I haven't shared them yet….. She chose the Sweet Citrus stamp set, Hybrid embossing folder & dies.  Look at these gorgeous cards! 

    Sweet Citrus 4 Save

    Her colors are Parakeet Party & Tahitian Tide.  Love those limes and the turquoise leaves.  

    Sweet Citrus 2 Save

    The card above features Mango Melody with Polished Pink; these colors have since retired. That striped paper was a host paper in the last catalog.  The white edge die-cut is from the Basic Borders dies.  

    Sweet Citrus 6 Save

    LOVE these bright colors with Starry Sky!  Daffodil Delight & Granny Apple green.  Those vellum leaves and sprigs are a wonderful accent (from the Bough punch).  

    Sweet Citrus fruit medley Save

    this last card features Pumpkin Pie with Parakeet Party, Shaded Spruce and Daffodil. She called this card 'Fruit Salad' since it combines many of the fruits she used in other cards. 

    You can see the Sweet Citrus stamp set here.  And the Sweet Citrus Hybrid embossing folder and dies here.

    I'll share more of her cards tomorrow.

  • Lasting Joy card swaps

    Sharing a few more card swaps I received recently, this time using the Lasting Joy stamp set.  

    This first card was made with the Countryside Inn designer paper and the Contour Scallops dies.  

    Lasting Joy swap Save

    The card measures 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4". Colors include Night of Navy & Boho Blue.  I do not have the name of the creator of this card; sometimes the name gets lost if they add a business card instead of a sticky note in the back. 

    Here's a photo of the Lasting Joy stamp set.  Gorgeous greetings and a few extra images for embellishing.

    LASTING JOY PHOTOPOLYMER STAMP SET (ENGLISH) Save

    This next card uses the same Lasting Joy stamp set but in Fresh Freesia and bubble Bath colors.

    Evie DiPiazza made this card; she used the Bright & Beautiful Designer Paper and the Elegant Borders dies for that pretty die-cut edge.  Here's a link to these dies.
