hello everyone,
Today, I am here to share my newest project using several Purple Cows product.
I used a few of the products and it made my project go together so quickly.
Punch It-Spring #7202
9" Hot and Cold Laminator #3016c
2 in 1 Combo Trimmer #1040
I love these punches and know I LOVE to make mini quilted looking squares with these patternsI used my computer to design and print out a simple calendar pattern.Now you know I couldn't just use a plain one.So here is how I decorated my calendar pages using these punched squares.
I punched out a four corner square I matted each piece with pink card stock and then decided to punch all four corners of my calendar.
I attached the paper quilt square on the front of each calendar.
I plugged in my Hot/Cold Laminator and let it warm for a minute
In the photo above you can see on the right how the green light comes on when it is ready.
I placed each calendar page in a lamination sleeve-this is the 8 1/2 x 11 size.
I wanted to share a close up so you can see the beautiful design.
I added a Letter of the month to each square using a generic stamp set I have.
Each page turned out beautiful! Adding a grommet to each page was so easy, this way I can connect several pages when I need them.
Here is my finished calendar pages with an attached write on/wipe off pen...I just used a piece of hook and loop to attach the pen to the sheet.
This is a back view, I love that I can write notes on the backside for extra notes to myself and just carry this along with me when I run errands.
Extra supplies used:
Really reasonable Ribbon
Pentek erasable pen
Pink and white card stock from CTMH
