Year Round Cheer - December Stamp of the Month


Welcome to our Stamp of the Month Blog Hop!  This month we are featuring Year Round Cheer, a set of 12 stamps.  If you have come here from Lalia's Blog you are on the right path!  The blog hop is a great big circle, so you can start here and work your way around.   If you get lost along the way, you'll find the complete list of participating consultant's HERE 

                          


We have over 50 consultants participating in the hop. Following the hop is easy, just click on the link at the end of the post and it will hop you right over to the next blog!

 This is the perfect set for quick little cards to add to a gift or for making pages for our Event Calendar!  I used this set to for my Event calendar.   There is a stamp for each month!  Here is a picture of each 'page' I made for my Event Calendar before I attached them all.

For many of these, I used keys from the Artiste Cricut cartridge.  (Feb,May, June, July, October and November).    I also chose to use only cardstock and did not add alot of embellishments.  When I made my first Event Calendar, I used lots of ribbons, paper flowers and bling. This caused the calendar to not lay flat because it bulked out so much.  So as hard it was, I kept the bling to a bare minimum.  

 Here is the January page added to the Event Calendar:





 The Event Calendar makes a wonderful inexpensive gift for teachers, friends, parents and grandparents! It is great for recording birthdays, anniversaries and other important dates.  It can be used year after year!
It is 4" x 18".  The space to create your mini page is 3 1/2" x 3 1/2". 
You can purchase a blank Event Calendar from my website for only $8.50.

 ITEM #Z126

Remember! This Stamp of the Month is available ONLY during the month of December!  You can purchase it for just $5 when you purchase $50 in Close To My Heart products!

Now, I want to share with a cute way to make a gift card holder!  I used the Artiste Cricut Cartridge to make this holder.  It was very simple!  The Cricut cuts the card and it folds so that you can slip a gift card inside! I set the cricut to cut at 5".  I recycled an old gift card so my card is a little thick. This size worked well.   If inserting a regular card you can use 4 3/4" measurement.  "Merry Christmas" is also cut using the Artiste Cricut Cartridge.  I set the measureme...
