Today is the first day of CHA (the Craft and Hobby Association trade show, for those unaware)!!
Unfortunately i was not able to attend this year (which is doubly sad since Rosement, IL where CHA is held is a hop, skip and jump away from my parents and hometown!).
I am however, looking forward to living vicariously through those who are in attendance and seeing all of the gorgeous booths and sneaks of new products!!
I have a few items on display at CHA this summer, including this project that I made for
SRM Stickers.
I used SRM Stickers mini calendar stickers to create this mini desktop calendar.
It was super easy to create, I think I might make a few more for Christmas gifts ;)
I started with a 4" x 6" acrylic frame (under $1 at Walmart!). I used Lily Bee Designs patterned paper to create the 'base' of the calendar, which then slid into the frame. I attached each SRM month sticker to patterned paper (also from Lily Bee Design), punched two holes at the top, attached gem brads, then adhered the mini calendar to the acrylic frame with pop dots. I then tied a bow around the frame, using dyed seam binding, and wrapped a little twine around the bow center. The '2012' sticker is also by SRM Stickers.
Thanks for stopping by today!
I will back tomorrow with some cards that I made using new SRM Christmas stickers :)
have a GREAT day!!

Awesome card. LOVE the colors. I feel the same way about CHA, my family is only about 30 minutes from Rosemont. I totally had plans of "killing two birds with one stone" visiting family at the same time as CHA. LOL! Unfortunately that didn't happen. Where do your parents live?
GORGEOUS!!!! The ribbon is the prettiest color!!
Fabulous! I love SRM stickers! I used on on the card I posted today, actually!
I love this project! It would make an awesome Christmas gift. Thanks for the tip where to get the frame. I'm in CA this month and can actually purchase some since I'm here. Thanks for helping me get started on Christmas gifts!
