I'm back!!! Hello everyone! I'm so sorry that I've been MIA for so long. I decided to go back to school and after being away from College for sooooo long, I felt that it would be a good idea that I dedicate myself to that. Don't get me wrong, I didn't abandon my craft room, I was just not creating as much as I would of liked to. So, I'm down to my last couple of weeks, before Summer break and I'm so happy it's almost over. It was tough, but I'm on a role now, and I'm looking forward continuing my studies.
I've been wanting to share the calendar I created for my desk, hoping that the year wouldn't be over by the time I finally got around to posting it. All my images as well as the sentiments are from My Favorite Things stamps, Pure Innocence line. I paper pieced all of them except for the January image, that one I colored with copics. I also used copics to color all the skin and hair.

It was so good to hear your voice on your yt video! Miss ya' and I so miss seeing all your fabulous projects! Thanks for the chance to enter your giveaway! Hugs,-Leslie
ReplyDeleteHi Leslie! Oh my goodness, I'm so, so, sorry to hear that Leslie. Thirteen years is a very long time and I know exactly how difficult that must have been for your family. I'm just dreading the day my now 15 yr old Yorkie goes, I am so giving him such a spoiled life right now, that I know he's very happy! Was it tough for you to get back to the routine, with a part-time job? So happy for you about you being in those DT, I have so much video catching up to do. Thank you so much for being such a "sweet" and "lovely" friend to me. I'm always keeping you in mind, specially when I see that beautiful frame you made for me, it sits in craft room with my favorite photo of me and my hubby. Thank you so much!!
DeleteYour desk calender is beautiful and I have been working at making cards and also working on a scrapbook to send to a friend of mine. take care and hopefully you will find time to craft along side your work at college.
