Merry Christmas with Mimi

Happy Thursday, I'm here to share a card for our ANYTHING GOES challenge over at

 Little Miss Muffet Stamps, it can't get any easier than Anything Goes!!  

I've used Mimi with Gift image for my card and colored her up with copics.  I've used the following colors:

fur W1,3,5,7

Pink Trim R81,83,85,89

white, shading was done with W1 & 3

I've used a lot of flowers and enamel dots, the dots are gumdrops from Your Next Stamp, I LOVE these dots, and I've used several flowers from my stash. I've used dies from Spellbinder, Lawn Fawn and My Favorite Things.

 I think she is adorable and would be fun for any wintery occasion that deserves a gift!

Welcome 2013

I can now post this because my friend received her calendar in the mail today....this was my Christmas gift to my friends and family. I made 10 of them and actually need to make a couple more. I first got the idea to do a calendar from Damaris over at Studio D.  Her calendar is amazing and you should definitely check it out. However, I needed something less time consuming and that I could crank out a lot of them in less time.  I found several different calendar styles and finally came up with this, which I think is just a combination of several ideas rolled into one.  I used digi elements and calendar kits from Pickleberry Pop and Fayette's designs. I LOVE her style.  I put the months together in Photoshop and sent them to Walgreens for development. They are 4x6 photos, the base is a wood block painted, sanded and then I mod podged the kraft bracket frame, line stitched on it and added the teacup hooks.

I think it turned out super cute and now all my friends are already wanting refills for next year!
