I just realized I didn’t finish showing you my desktop calendar pages.  It looks like the last ones I shared were May and June so I’ll finish the second half of the year over the next week or so.

Since I used the Sweet Pea Designer Series paper for the calendar project I had to make July fit with the color scheme of the paper.  The paper doesn’t have a red in it so I decided to use the Pumpkin Pie and Taken with Teal for my July page.  And since it was July I used the Star punches.  The photo on this page is from Greg’s family Reunion last July – this would be Greg’s sister, my niece, me and then all of the girl cousins.  Somehow we actually coordinated pretty well with our clothing choices.

July Stampin’ Up! Supplies:

  • Pumpkin Pie card stock
  • Taken with Teal card stock and ink
  • Sahara Sand card stock and ink
  • Sweet Pea Designer Series Paper stack
  • Scallop Border punch
  • Star punch
  • Large Star punch

The August Calendar uses the new stamp set in the Sale-A-Bration Brochure called Good Neighbors.  It has the little houses and trees.  The Sweet Pea paper has patterns with trees on it so those worked perfect.  I haven’t added a photo to this page yet – I can’t decide what to put on it – a picture or our house might be good here.  Since the boys are older I don’t take the First Day of School pictures like I used – we start school in August so that would be a great picture for this page.
