Arty girls challenge -Anything but a card





The challenge at arty girlz this week is to create anything but a card!!
To satisfy my addiction to colouring in Tilda's I made this calender for my daughter. When we get rehoused she wants a green, pink and black room. Infact she has designed it....chip off the old block.......I got the calendar off a google search. Cut it out and layered onto card. I stuck December to the backing paper and then stapled all the other months on top, so we can pull them off. I coloured in Tilda with promarkers and placed her in the frame. I created the background using papermania papers and some green paper from my stash and stuck Tilda on. I then laminated the background. I stuck the calender on top of the laminated background so next year it can be used again. You never know how long we are gonna wait to be housed!!!!

I then added prima flowers. I used my crop-a-dile to punch holes and place eyelets and used some ribbon to make the calender into a hanging calender.
