Vintage Calendar Page

 

 Are you a Graphic 45 lover?   I know I am!  I just love to create with their paper and embellishments.  I love the wonderful accents and vintage look that it gives my layouts.  Today I have for you a calendar page created by Arlene Cuevas.

Arlene used Graphic 45’s line “A Place In Time.”   I just love this beautiful layout for February and have the perfect pictures of my mother to use.  Because February is a month for love, I wanted to create something special in memory of my mother. I was inspired by this beautiful page layout and knew this was perfect to put my beautiful mothers pictures on.  Thank you Arlene for your creativity in making this gorgeous page.

 Cut out the postage stamps from February Cut-Aparts, then use a 1/8” hole punch to punch around the edge.

 

This is the look that you get when you use a hole punch to cut out your postage stamp from the Graphic 45 collections.

 

Cut out elements from the Sentiments sheet to layer onto your calendar page.

 

Take some chipboard pieces from the coordinating Place in Time Chipboard Diecuts 2 set to accent your page.

 

Start to slowly pull the page together, using the February Foundation page as your background or base. You can use your adhesives to adhere basic paper elements to the page such as this border.

 

Add flowers to your calendar page.  Adding some vintage red Darjeelings by Petaloo.
