Hi Everyone,
Today is the 3rd day of sneak peeks from Taylored Expressions and I am so excited to show this project that I made using the absolutely darling new Calendar Critters stamp set and Calendar Critters dies with the 2016 Mini Tear off Calendar. This mini tear off calendar comes in a set of 10 (a set of 10, I tell ya!!! That is awesome!) !!! I wanted a way to display each month and so I took one of these gorgeous We R Decorative Wooden Frame and I tore off each month to create a 4x6 panel that will fit into this frame. I created a little mini scene with each of these using the Build A Scene - Calendar dies that comes with a mini frame, fence, cloud, sun and grass set of dies... so so so cute!!!
Here are all 12 months and one in the frame to show how you can display it on your desk or anywhere!!

I did some fun paper piecing on the sweet whale image using the Hello Happiness paperpack - I love this little whale - isn't she so cute?! I stamped the whale onto the pink DP as seen here. I also stamped the whale on some Sugar Cube cardstock and die cut it out using the coordinating Under the Sea dies. I then adhered the whale on top of the die cut Sugar Cube cardstock so that it would be a little firmer and hold up better long term.
