~Welcome to the
December Calendar
Blog Hop~
December 28-December 30,2010
Welcome to A Scrap Above, I am so happy to be part of this Blog Hop Hosted by the amazing Karelj over at "One By One The Flamingos Are Stealing My Sanity"
You should be coming here from Diane over at "Crafting this moment", if not, please click HERE to start over
On to my project, I have the month of April, I hope you enjoy it, I am in the middle of a move (that is taking forever).. So most of my stuff was already packed when I started making this Calendar.
Recipe:
12x12 paper bought from Michaels a few years ago, sorry, dont know the name/maker
Cartridge used: Designer Calendar (rented from my good friend Tori @ http://hobbynobby.com )
Photo mats are just random cuts,
April Stamp is a set I won on a blog hop (YAY)
Calendar mat was 12x12 paper cut at 7 1/4
Calendar circles 8 1/2x11 paper cut at 3 1/4
for the #'s I used the "rounded" feature cut at 1 1/4
Sun-Sat was cut at 1 1/4
B-day cake cut at 1 1/4, then colored with my red map pencil
Ribbon is from my stash
Month was cut at 1 3/4
Year cut at 1 3/4
A little bling I won from another blog hop (YAY)
I will have some candy to give away to 1 lucky winner who does this:
1. Leave a comment
2. Become a follower ONLY if you like my blog
3. Leave a 2nd comment if you are (or become) a follower of my blog, this will give you an extra chance to win!
4. Be sure to leave a way for me to contact you in case you win
I will pick a winner with random.org on January 3,2011 and will email the winner and post on my blog by January 5,2011
Be sure to stop at each blog and leave a comment at each blog, I am sure you will find some YUMMY candy along the way.

I DO like your blog and am now a follower. If most of your stuff was packed, it may prove my theory of even in scrapping, less can be more! I find that sometimes when I only have a few things to pick from, I can do a much better job than when I have so many that I just go crazy. Your April calendar is great. Thank you for listing the name of the site where you rented the cartridge, I added it to my favorites.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your move. I hope you have good weather when the time comes!
I just wanted to stop by one more time and let you know how much fun I've had hopping with you in the Calendar Blog Hop. I hope you've had tons of fun, gathered some new followers and have lots of great ideas for making your 2011 Calendar! Make sure you've left your comment on each blog to be eligible for the Designer's calendar Blog Candy! Thanks again! karelj
ReplyDeleteSeriously girl for not having a lot of supplies I think you did a super great job. It just goes to show you dont need much to make a masterpiece!!! ;)
