January 2011 calendar by Esther


The 5.5" x 11.75" base is Midnight Frost Flurry and the second layer is the blue side of Dark Denim Dot by Bo Bunny. All corners were rounder with The Chomper. Vellum was stamped with Staz On and adhered with brads at top and a wrapped strip of cardstock that is adhered to base.
Snowflakes were stamped with black and Stone Gray Staz On. The silver embossed wooden snowflake is raised just enough to be the main accent. Stampendous powder was heated several times to get the luster and smoothness even on the wood.
The calendar is printed on photo paper using Microsoft Publisher to get a table for the days. The contrasting blue columns make it easy to read. This was a fun thing to do. The size is good and decorative next to a computer. Besides, it is a way to use some scraps after the layouts are finished.
