I'm happy to be participating in a very special Gina K Design Release. Tami Mayberry has designed a very special and very large stamp set that will not only make card makers very happy, but will send scrapbook enthusiasts over the moon. It's probably the biggest and most complete calendar stamp set I've ever seen.
I chose to use the Calendar Bits & Pieces set to create a welcoming card that I might send to a friend or family member, inviting them to come visit. Before I separated the month stamps, I stamped them onto cardstock and used it as a list to let my recipient know that they are ALWAYS welcome...any time, any month.
Along with the twelve months, I stamped the separate words, cut them out and attached them to the frame image that contains my sentiment.
To add a little something to this long card, I added some bling and gingham ribbon topped with a matching gingham flower.For some helpful tips on how to use the Calendar Bits & Pieces and Calendar Grid stamp sets, please be sure to check out Gina's blog and StampTV for a helpful video on just how quick and easy it can be to use! Both of these sets as well as the PDF version of the Calendar Grid image, if that's your preference, will be available for purchase tonight over on our online store.
