MARCH CALENDAR

HAPPY MARCH 2012!!

  It's hard to believe just how fast the days do go! 

Today I have my March desk calendar to share with you.

I have to tell you that March is NOT one of my favorite months. It seems that the winds blows ALL of the time in March. Have I ever told you that I hate the wind? But I do always think of 4 leaf clovers in March and I just happen to run into a very cute little digi image that I got last year.

It is Swings and Slides- GOOD LUCK by Pollycraft

I was just looking at my photos and I swear if I could take a straight photo all would be good! LOL....

My image has been colored with my copic markers.

Papers: All from my scrap bag. Got to love that when it hapens!

embellies: 3 leaf clover pin, pink satin ribbon, twill binding tapes from Really Reasonable Ribbon, dot ribbon, paper flowers, pearls, candy dots, bakers thread.

Tools: McGill pine leaves punch, spellbinders oval, sewing machine.

Challenges I will be entering my page in today:

A very dear/special friend Christine's (dol creations) also has a calendar posted to her blog today.

MY FEBRUARY DESK CALENDAR.......

Happy February!!

I can not believe that it is February already!!

The time is just flying by!!! 

I have my February Desk Calendar to share with you today!

This month I had it finished ahead of time so that I could post it on the first.

I hope to do that each month for the rest of the year.

I have to tell you that February is maybe my favorite time of year to make little crafty projects!!  I think that it is the red, pink, grey, white and black colors and then I can really fluff things up this time of year and get away with it!! ha ha ha

I have used another Krista Smith image and you can find ALL of her digital images at her Etsy store HERE.

A while back I had bought 4 of them! I do have all 4 of them colored just not into projects yet. I told myself that I couldn't buy anymore of them until I have all 4 of these made up into projects. So I have 2 more to go then I can buy some more of these little cuties!!

Her images are so fun to color. I just love coloring the hair on her images.

Papers: The Paper Studio, Girl's Paperie, Making Memories, Anna Griffin and Bazzill cardstocks.

Misc embellishments: Pearls ( Queen & Company), calendar (Jenni Bowlin), Metal heart charm, metal card, 2 different metal Love (all from my stash), ribbons, paper flowers, crystals, glass bulbs, string pearls, (from stash),
 

Other items for technique: Copic Markers to color image, Distressed inks (Tim Holtz Antique Linen) Stickles (Ranger) Sewing machine for sewing the layers of my card.

 I added Stickles to the Magnolia Heart Swirls.

Copic markers, Distressed inks, paper flowers can all be bought at Michelle's Scrapbooking and More
