Taylored Expressions Calendar Challenge – May!

CalendarChallengeBadge

Today it's time again for our cool new calendar projects from Taylored Expressions and I am having such a good time making my pages each month! The Baker's Dozen Design Team will be sharing calendar goodies and ideas with you throughout the entire year, so be sure to check out everyone else's projects too.

Refer over to Taylor's blog to get all the info to play along with us each month. There will be a linky at the bottom of Taylor's post and it will remain open all year, so you have the option to go back and catch up if you start playing late. For everyone who plays in 10 or more of these monthly calendar challenges in 2012, there will be a random draw for a TE prize pack valued at over $150!!! Click here to go to the TE Calendar Department and see all the goodies.

I chose to make the "Frame Your Imagination" calendar and use Cuppie as my theme! The stand for the calendar comes in raw wood and then you can paint it whatever color you choose. I painted mine kind of an antique white and then speckled some brown onto it to give it some character.

CLICK here for the calendar standCLICK here for the page protectors and CLICK here for the page inserts. I like this a lot because the finished pages are 6×6 and that gives a lot of room to stamp!

Here is my May Calendar page….Cuppie is already primed for Summer! :-)

I used the Wave Border Die for the bottom and two of my favorite TE stamp sets!

A Year of Sweets 2 and A Day in Paradise – they go together nicely for a beach scene!

I colored Cuppie one shade darker than I normally do…he has a bit of a sunburn! hee hee. You know, the first time out of the season and all.

      Hey, I can once again post my comments. This calendar is so cute. What a great idea…poor cuppie needs to stay covered, maybe some added icing would help!!
