Calendar for the New Year!!....


Calendar for the New Year!....




This weeks workshop was the final one for 2015! Each of our ladies created a beautiful calendar ready for the new year!










Our ladies covered the calendar in Craft Consortium decoupage paper - 'Vintage Butterfly Decoupage Paper', by tearing it into small pieces and randomly sticking it down using 'Cosmic Shimmer Matt Glue Seal and Glaze'. Ripping the paper before sticking it down, not only makes the decoupage paper easier to apply, it also gives the calendar a unique and professional finish.






The calendars were embellished with a variety of different die-cut pieces. A range of dies were use, from Cheery Lynn Designs to Sue Wilson, Spellbinders and more! The craft pins used on the calendar were Sue Wilson's and gave a touch of elegance and glamour.











To create the flower our ladies stamped and inked the paper and when dry, used a circle 1" punch and a second circle 2" punch to create petals. Then by folding them and putting them into position were the flowers brought to life.











As this was our last workshop of the year, we had Christmas lunch with our ladies after our workshop to celebrate the year and thank them for loyally attending every workshop!









We hope you enjoyed our Calendar from our final Workshop this year. We hope you all have a very happy and healthy Christmas and all the best for 2016!!

See you in the new year for more creations! 

Happy Crafting!!
