Pink Christmas with mini Calendar!

Hello everyone!

Hope you all are well and ready for the Christmas festivities!

For a long time, I wanted to make a Calendar always and This time I got such beautiful new chipboard sets from new launch products here at Expressions Crafts Stamps and made me inspire to create a new style! I fell in love with all my heart with these chippies. The reindeer is soooo majestic with all beautiful frames in 3 different sizes and gorgeously design, love it!
It took me to complete in 2 days! It was a labour of love, but completely worth it!😊

I will show how to create these step by step process!

I hoard this cardboard for a long time from a packaging and it has 3 scored line too:). I covered it with pattern papers.

          I want to show the crystal wintery look on the chippies, so didn't apply any color and keep them in their natural color! The scalloped frames and reindeer are highlighted by crystal clear powder and sparkling dots using glossy accents.

I applied the chalk paint to the snowflake and highlighted it with crystal clear powder for frosty winter effects. The flowers are spritz with sprays and highlighted too for more crystal textures!

For the LO, I toned down the color of the PP using chalk paint, texture paste and spray, added more snowflakes using Merry Christmas stencil.

To create the mini calendar tabs. I stamped them month wise using jet black ink and my favorite tool Misti, always made work so easy and quick for best results and applied different stencils month wise like on Dec month I applied snowflakes, Jan with new beginnings so applied stars and so on....... You can see the pics clearly.

Now time to assemble all the things I going to use them in a Shabby style, so I took a rough pic in advance, always helpful to create and what in my mind!

Here are the few close-ups:

Love the majestic look of Reindeer with wintery crystal texture frame!

I added the Calendar using brads and I die cut these tiny tags showing The year 2018 from the same paper pack.  There is a pen to write some special event or day on the backside of each tab which can easily come out from the brads and fit again!
The deer and different trees are the rub-on!

Here is the final go again! Hope you enjoyed this creation!
