…the past few weeks have been such a blur! Travel, events, and a few unexpected moments have kept me on my toes.
As a result, I’m focusing on the comment a friend shared recently. She said she finds herself saying “At least…” quite often. As in, “I missed every green light on the Pi’ilani Highway, but at least I wasn’t in an accident.” It’s an attitude of gratitude I try to cultivate.
So I’ve been busy, but at least I’ve been healthy, happy, and even productive. Here’s the last calendar of 2018 – I hope you’ve been inspired!
- Stamps: none!
- Color Palette: Whisper White, Real Red, Garden Green
- Accessories: Big Shot, Santa’s Signpost Framelits, Red Glimmer Paper (retired), Santa’s Workshop Specialty DSP (sold out), Everyday Label Punch, 1/2″ circle punch, Stampin’ Dimensionals
I was preparing to stamp images on this calendar when this DSP caught my eye. I have to confess that since it’s sold out of the Holiday Catalog, I’ve been reluctant to use it. But how could I not?
Would you like to make your own DIY Easel calendar? The calendar pages are 3 1/2″ square and are available as a PDF complete with cover pages (should you want to make them for gifts) and cutting instructions. You may print as many as you like for your gifting needs. Cost is $5, and all I need is your email to get you started.
Stop by and see what Crystal and Cheryl have done for December!
Hi Anne! Such a cute way to end the year. These elves are adorable😉. I like your friend’s comment. It’s good to find thankfulness in every situation, even though it isn’t our ideal predicament. Have a wonderful Christmas season and hope to see you when we arrive on Maui!🌴😎

Thanks, Annette. I’ve really appreciated the simplicity of “at least”. It becomes a code phrase after a while – kind of replaces my son’s typical response: First World Problems, Mom.
When will you be here? Look forward to seeing you.

I sent you an email on the weekend about the calendars for $5.00 and never got a reply–I am still interested

Dear Nadine,
I’m so sorry about this. I sent an invoice through Square on 12/2. I’ll send again, and if you don’t get it please let me know.
Aloha,
Anne
