SHARON'S INKIE FINGERS: 2015 Calendar with My Digital Studio

As much as I loved the holidays and spending time with my family and friends - especially having Ashley here for almost two weeks not to mention Bogart for 4 months (!!), it was nice to get back to "normal" today. Ashley was a sweetheart and helped Sonny and I take down the tree and all the house decorations before she left so I didn't have to bother with that. Last night after taking her to rhe airport, I straightened up all the gift wrap paper, bags, ribbon, tags, gift card holders, tissue, etc. and put them away in the attic until next year. So today was wide open for doing a little card making! I have two swaps (Occasions catalog and Sale-a-Bration) due in two weeks plus a shoebox card to make for this Saturday so I knew I had to get busy. It was great to do some stamping that wasn't in red and green or other Christmas colors!! Don't get me wrong - I love Christmas but by New Year's I'm done with it!

As you can see, I changed my blog header to a simple one for now. I'll probably work on a Valentine one later but this was good for now. The pennants and dotted background piece is actually a sheet of Designer Paper that I just filled a rectangle punch with. All was left was my text and I used an Alphabet Punch (Smitten) and paper filled it - easy, peasy!

I always make Ashley a calendar for Christmas and she does the same for me on My Digital Studio. This year, with her being at Ft Belvoir, she wasn't able to get it done for Christmas. So, on Sunday, she used my computer to create one and I should be receiving it in a week or two. Here is the one I made for her this year (without the date pages). They end up being like an album of our year. I always keep mine to look back at the pictures.
