Trying to keep up ...

I don't suppose there is anyone else out there who has big ideas, starts things and then realises that it may all be too much to handle?  Of course not I hear you say!!  It just seems that experience and age don't dampen my enthusiasm - I constantly dream up great ideas and truly believe that I can achieve them ... then I scramble to do it all!!

Working has kept me busy during the day, I'm pretty tired at night and my good intentions feel overwhelming.

What am I talking about?  Doing my 365 Project, getting cards, albums and calendars made for the market, starting a Gratitude Blog and making sure I keep this blog up to date.  Alas, it happens, but not as I intended and more erratically than I hoped!  Still, it happens!

Here is a sample of the Vintage Calendar that I am working on at the moment.  Really need to finish it as January is nearly over!

Till next time ...

Vintage Calendar

I have a special friend that I wanted to get something different for Christmas - I was making a Shabby/Vintage desktop calendar for myself and thought I'd like to make her a calendar also.

She isn't into really feminine, girly things so I decided that, seeing she's a movie goer, I'd make a vintage movie calendar for her.

I used DCWV 'La Creme' paper.  Beautiful paper in blacks, creams and whites, with flocking.  I made the covers with corrugated card and used two black rings to hold it all together.

I enjoyed making it and hope that she loves it as much as I do!

Here is a sample of the calendar -

So, till next time...
