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!

  • A treat bag from an envelope? Yes!


    I cannot believe what a nice size this treat bag is – all from an A2 size envelope!  

    Steps:

    1. First I stamped just the flap with snowflakes from the Snowflake Wishes stamp set using Coastal Cabana and Highland Heather inks.  Then I stamped the Highland Heather tag and heat embossed it with White embossing powder.  

    2. Next score 1" on the bottom and up both sides while the envelope is flat.  Fold on the score lines and press each fold well. 

    3. Open up the envelope into a box. Secure the bottom corners to the flat bottom. 

    4. Die-cut the flap using the Basic Border dies. Add a second layer of Coastal Cabana – also die-cut.  

    5. Fill the bag with treats, wrap the mesh ribbon around it and add the tag.  Tie it into a bow.  Done!

    And below is the video; it's the last project I share on this FB Live replay!

  • Easy Tri-fold card with a pocket and video tutorial


    I LOVE this special project today!  I made it on FB Live yesterday but you can see it here on YouTube now too. 

    It features the Whimsy & Wonder DSP, Merriest Moments stamp set, Iridescent Snowflakes, Basic Border and Tailor Made Tags dies.  

    They're tri-fold pocket cards made with a 5 1/2" X 12" piece of Designer Paper.  I used the Whimsy & Wonder specialty paper seen here. 

    Here's the inside view of the pink card on the top left.  I love how it shows off both sides of the Designer paper.  

    They feature multiple tags and a pocket for either a tag, gift card or photo!  

    The Basic Border and Tailor Made tags are discounted through Thursday, November 18th.  

    • Basic Border dies seen here were $29 and are now $23.20
    • Tailor Made Tag dies seen here were $22 and are now just $17.60



    The belly band slides off along with the snowflake & tags/ribbon so you can open it up to reveal the pretty inside:
