When you find yourself out of the habit of doing something it’s harder to get back into doing it. Things like working out or going to church or even stamping. I have to admit that I kind of lost my mojo for stamping for awhile and along with that keeping up my blog. But with the new catalogs out and seeing so many wonderful cards I am finding joy in my craft room again. So this first post in awhile will be catching up the CD Calendar pages beginning with April.
This was an easy page to make using some Designer Series Paper with daisies and adding a punched out daisy using the Medium Daisy Punch and the retired Leaf Punch.
For the May calendar page I used the Painted Poppies stamp set since American Poppy Day is in May. It is a day to honor and remember those who served and died for our country in all wars.
Seascape stamp set and dies were used to make this page. I was sad to see these retire.
July always brings thoughts of fireworks and our American flag and it’s not always easy to find something new. It is also a time for celebrations and picnics and that calls for ice cream! I used Sweet Ice Cream stamp set and coordinating punch which is now retired.
So happy to see your blog post pop up again! I was just thinking of it yesterday and was going to go online and see if I was missing them for some reason.
