Mini Calendar Project

 Happy Hump Day everyone!  I am looking forward to seeing my kiddos today. Here's a little project I did this year. I made about two dozen of these little calendars on mini 3x3" cards (so they will just stand up right). I used some seasonal bling on the top and added pull off calendars on the front.

 Happy Saturday!  I wanted to share a little love as we approach valentines season. As this cute card says, "I cross my heart"  How sweet is that?  I made this card in a class with beautiful papers from Echo Park.  You take  12 sheets of 6x6 echo park paper and create 8 card fronts.  It was a fun class.
