Mini Calendar Inspiration by Tessa Wise

Welcome to day #2 of our introduction of our 2017 Mini Calendars and Year of Memories.  We celebrate this introduction with lots of ideas for you!  Here's a fun one from former SRM Design Team member Tessa Wise.  What a talent!  

Tessa created a a set of mini calendars.  And she loved storing the mini calendars in one of our darling floral bags!  She circled the important dates in each month so she would not forget to send a card.

She loved using our decorative die for this project!  

Tessa used a SRM Clear A2 Card box to hold 8 cards and she can add to them each month.  She added a bit of velcro tape to the back of each month's calendar and she can easily change the month as she goes through the year.  How fun!  When a new month comes around, she simply changes the month and adds the cards that she made for that month.  

Instead of the 2016 Year of Memories, you would use the 2017 decorative mini calendar sticker.  And don't forget the twine!  Tessa used Honeydew… one of my favorite colors!

What a great way to stay organized throughout the year! 

Be sure to come see us tomorrow when we will share a layout using SRM mini calendar stickers! 

Hugs & Kisses Fabric Bags by Juliana

Hello SRM Fans, it's Juliana with you and I'm excited to be sharing a trio of cuteness with you today using the SRM Stickers Fabric Bags. Did you know they come in a variety of vintage floral colors that are just perfect for creating little romantic gifts of love?

I decorated each bag using SRM's Stickers By The Dozen Valentines set and Labels By The Dozen Valentines set.  To add a touch of dimension to each label sticker, I mounted them on white cardstock and then attached a twine bow with a mini clothespin. Double sided tape worked wonderfully to adhere this piece to the bag. 

The final touch was to then fill each little bag with everyone's favorite chocolate Kisses. These decorated Fabric Bags would of course make a sweet little Valentine's Day gift, but don't you think they would make adorable wedding favors as well? Thanks so much for stopping by today!

HUGS!

Wedding Favors by Cathy

Hi everyone!  Cathy here with you today sharing a easy simple idea for wedding bird seed favors.  I used SRM's new Vintage Floral Bags.  These are so gorgeous, head over heels in love with the colors and patterns plus you can get floral fabric ribbon to coordinate with all. 

I made a little tag using my Silhouette Sketch Pens in a metallic bronze that says "Toss Me", then added a flower with a brad to secure them.  

Then filled with bird seed.  You could make a ton of these in no time at all.  So simple and elegant.

Here are the links to the gorgeous bags that I used.  So many lovely fabric, linen and burlap bags are now in at the SRM Store.  If you are planning a wedding you really need to take a peek!

Flowers, Flowers, and More Flowers! by Michele

Hi there! Michele here with a plethora of flowers!  I am in LOVE with these floral fabric bags!  As a crafter there are several things I can't live without.  

Like...... glitter. (Obviously!)

Water colors.

Ribbon.

And.....flowers! 

So why not dress these babies up with another flower?  You can never have enough right?  I used SRM's Jane Doodle's stamp set called Fancy Doodles.  I stamped it with Versamark and heat embossed it in white.  I used water colors and fussy cut them.   

I added satin ribbon, twine, and a sentiment from the We've Got Your Border (bright) collection. 

I hope you share my flower addiction and love these bags as much as I do! 

A 2016 Birthday Calendar Organizer by Tessa Wise

Hi!  It's Tessa Wise sharing a fun project with you today.   I created a birthday calendar that doubles as a card organizer.

The organizer is an A2 Clear Card Box.  It holds about 8 cards plus envelopes.  I decorated it with the large 2016 sticker from the Year of Memories/2016 sheet and added some cardstock and patterned papers around the middle of the box.  I also added a bit of Honeydew Baker's Twine around it for embellishment.

In the center of the box, I added a mini calendar sticker from the Mini Calendar Stickers/Decorative 2016 Sticker Sheet.  The year's worth of calendar stickers have been stuck down onto white cardstock and diecut using the new Wafer Thin Die made especially for them.  

I loved using this new decorative die for the Mini Calendar Deco design for this project!

I can circle the important dates each month so I don't forget to send my cards!  The extra month diecuts fit perfectly in one of the new Vintage Floral Bags:

Each month has a bit of velcro tape on the back of it.  I can easily change out each month as I go through the year.

When a new month comes around, I just change out the calendar and add my cards for that month!

I'm hoping this project will keep me organized and sending cards throughout the year!

Vintage Floral Fabric Bags by Shantaie

I just got these new beautiful floral bags in the mail today and I simply couldn't wait to dress them up!

I think I love tea as much as I love coffee, and what a scrumptious way to present a few gourmet tea bags or aromatic loose tea as a favor or a thank you gift!  

I inked the edges of a white doily with pink ink and folded it over the top of the bag, added a paper flower cut with my Silhouette and a double twine bow.  To finish the bag I used a small white punched piece topped with a thank you sentiment sticker.  

 I can't decide which color combination I love best.  Light Pink with pink …

Or Olive with pink.  Just as long as it has pink…I'm OK!

And here's my pretty pair of gift bags.  

Which color combo is your favorite?

Happy crafting!
