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.  

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”

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:

  

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.  

*I'll be giving away two easel calendar kits with online orders in February. Details tomorrow! 

This Easel Calendar is the second project I make in the video below. Click on it to watch!

  • New! Delicate Framing Easel card with free project sheet


    I shared this pretty card on last week’s Live video. I also have a free project sheet for you as well.

    It features one of our new online products called Delicate Framing; a beautiful greeting set.

    My colors include Lost Lagoon, White & Gold foil. The other products include Creative Haven dies (new), Everyday Arches dies, Gold & Black twine & the Textured Notes stamp set (leaves).
    Here are the Creative Haven dies:

    I focused on these two new products in my projects – the Creative Haven dies seen above for the leaves and the Delicate Framing stamp set for it’s greetings. Both are new this month.

    Aren’t the greetings wonderful? See the Delicate Framing set here.
    As you can see, it’s an easel card which is quite simple to make. Add a second score line in the middle of your card base front and add something to the inside to hold it up.

    You can print or download the free project sheet here. *I recommend saving them to a file for easy access.

    Below is the video tutorial for this pretty card and one more featuring these products.

    The kits below will ship out this week so you have plenty of time to finish them by December. And they’re quick & easy too!

    The Christmas Tags & More cards are easy because there isn’t any stamping. The greetings are from the gold foil ephemera pack included in the kit.

    This kit to go includes a share of the festive designer paper, the ribbon, the peppermint gems, the ephemera greetings, the PDF tutorial and video too. Plus the pre-cut 10 cards that are all fun folds. All for $30 plus shipping. It’s a fabulous deal!

    Don’t wait long; I have just a few left. Go here to get yours. *You will need to cut your new designer paper for the cards but my directions make that simple.

    The other kit I created this month is also easy but does require stamped greetings. But there is very little prep & just a little trimming of the card bases to create these beautiful wintery cards:

    These cards could be winter or holiday; it’s your choice when you stamp the greetings.

    This kit originated from a former Paper Pumpkin kit but I jazzed up the cards and added more to create 12 gorgeous cards. This kit includes 12 envelopes and a share of Peppermint gems plus the PDF tutorial.
    I have a few left so grab yours soon. This kit is $29 and you can see it here.

    **Remember to check out all of my kits to go and tutorials here at my shop; choosing more than one will save on shipping.

  • Striking Nests of Winter card kit to go; reserve yours ASAP


    Today I’m sharing my second card kit to go for November. It is a former paper pumpkin kit called the Nests of Winter; but I jazzed them up a bit plus added more.

    This pretty kit includes lots of foil accents and a wintery bird theme. I added Christmas greetings but they could easily be winter themed all occasion cards too. This kit includes 12 cards with envelopes and a share of Peppermint gems plus the PDF tutorial. It includes so much product you could make even more cards with just a few card bases.

    This card kit will go out in mid to late November, before Thanksgiving, giving you plenty of time to get them out for Christmas if needed. The PDF will be sent to you via email immediately after payment.
    *You will need greetings, ink and a paper trimmer to complete them.

    You can see it here on my Shop along with many more kit & tutorial options. It’s $29 plus shipping. See all of my kits here.

  • Grab this Quick & Easy Christmas fun fold card kit to go; while supplies last!


    I was torn whether I wanted to do another set of Christmas cards for my November monthly kits. But I had to feature the fun Christmas Tags & More DSP so I went with it.

    What do you think?

    They’re so bright & colorful in traditional colors of red & green. These cards are all fun fold layouts too but you’ll get the link to my exclusive video with purchase of the kit or tutorial.
    I didn’t do any stamping on these cards. I used our Christmas Greetings for You Mix & Match ephemera instead. It’s filled with tons of Gold foil pre-cut greetings! *It’s currently unavailable but I ordered before they ran out. (same with the DSP)

    This kit includes a half package of the designer paper and ephemera. Plus shares of the ribbon and Peppermint gems too! All with 10 pre-cut cards for just $31. The only thing you have to cut is your new designer paper; but with the tutorial that’s easy. You can see this kit here.

    If you’d rather get the PDF tutorial seen here you can choose it for $16 instead. But you won’t get any of the lovely products…..

    You can see all of my available kits here. Choose more than one and save money on shipping costs.

    I’ll share my second Christmas cards kit with you tomorrow. If you can’t wait, check them out here.
