Perpetual calendar

   I always find that after Christmas I want to work with some bright colours and this kit from Craftwork Cards and available from The Fruit Pixie online shop, is just the ticket for that. The kit has the usual beautifully designed 8x8 papers in a pad plus die cut toppers. With each of their kits they like to chop and change about with the die cuts and  this time there are die cut flowers. Then of course you get the pack of their Candies, which if you have not come across them before they describe them as brads with out the prongs. So basically a  small 3d domed circle.

 Now I have to confess I am terrible with numbers, especially remembering then. I never know what the date is, never have been able to remember it and I am also almost as bad on the day too, ever since Hubby has taken early retirement. So when I saw this perpetual calendar in the Silhouette design store I thought it might solve the problem so I had to make one.

The calendar was cut on my Silhouette Cameo, an electronic cutting machine which I love.

I made it up in white card then covered it with the beautiful Craftwork Cards Scrumptious papers.

As you can see they all work very beautifully together, as we have come to expect from Craftwork Cards.

Not a very exciting photo I know but I wanted to show there are plainer papers too in the kit.

This is a lovely bright kit. Even though it has quite a lot of pink in it I wouldn't say it was too girly as the browns and blues give you different options for colour combinations.

You can find the kit in the Fruit Pixie shop here -
