Really Reasonable Ribbon Blog: Shabby Chic Perpetual Calendar

Hello Friends!!

Heather here and today I would like to share with you a Perpetual Calendar that I created using Gina's Chipboard and some fabby ribbons and trims from Really Reasonable Ribbon.

I used some digital papers that I designed to cover all of the pieces. I covered all the insides of the base with paper. Then glued it together, and then applied paper to the outside. Trim excess paper with an x-acto knife. I glued Chloe Lace to just the top edges (please refer to photo below).

I used embossing medium and tinsel gold to emboss all the corners and the and edges of the base.

I also embossed the words and base part of the label. I covered one side of each of the tags with one of my digital papers as you can see below. Then I trimmed the edges with an x-acto knife. Then I applied paper to the other side, trimmed them and then inked the edges with Frayed Burlap. I applied paper to my label top in the same manner, and then the base was embossed. On the back of the label base I added some Candi Fix it Foam Tabs.

Here is a look at the tags finished below. I used Juliet Lace, Moss green Leaves, Cotton Candy Baker's Twine, Deep Ivory Mulberry Roses, and Baby Pink Mulberry Roses,

I added Juliet Lace and Cotton Candy Baker's twine as well as a button with a cotton candy bow to my number pieces. Martha's yard, Fauna, and Cheeky Pink Glitters were used on the edges of all of my pieces.

Here is a look at it from the side. I used the Corners which I embossed on both sides of my Calendar base. The Bow it All tool was used with Pink Salmon Seam Binding to create the double bow on the front.
