Mary Anne has got so sick of me whingeing about how hard it is to make a card at the moment that she turned up at the crop on Saturday armed with an idea, and knowing my complete inability to understand the computer part of crafting, she even stood ready and offered to email pdf images for me. Ya see, it pays to have a whinge. Thanks MA. I'll show it here, of course, but not till after the Card Marathon. Which is erm, this weekend. So this week my focus is on counting and cutting. There are a couple of advantages to this. The first and most obvious is that I had to tidy up thoroughly - when you're pulling supplies to make a dozen or so cards, you need everything where it should be; saves time and panic! The second is that I'm not sitting at my desk spending four hours on a single card idea. I just know that as soon as Christmas is over, I'll be buzzing with ideas for Christmas cards. It goes that way, huh.

Ooh that's lovely, but then I am rather fond of that shade of blue:) Your roses look great and to be fair mine look fine, I just need to get quicker at making them!!
Sadly they don't need volunteers for the Nutcracker Trip, plenty of teachers willing to go. Surprise!
Great page - hope nothing falls off... Yes,I too get my best C card ideas as soon as I've finished the last one. Only this year I haven't started a one yet... meant to at the weekend but was feeling under the weather on Sunday and loafed on the sofa all day!
Your page is gorgeous. I could never write on this because my writing wouldn't be elegant and graceful enough. Beautiful!
I love this page,the roses are gorgeous and I love the color. I like how your shaded the edge of each individual day card. Have a great day.
Julia, this is absolutely gorgeous!!!
Your calendar page is stunningly gorgeous.....I agree, it would be a shame to write on it.
Love JoZarty x
Never seen so many flowers in one Julia place before...be blessed and prosperous in the cutting dept.......
Love your calendar page. :) If something falls off...hey...it's an easy fix. Rotsa ruck - and fun - with your cards. I'll look forward to seeing them.

Thank you for commenting and visiting my blog. I copied my reply here...
:) Thanks Julia! That IS a crown. :) Two friends and I got together to each make one before I left the USA. We would wear them when we got together for a play day...and now, when I miss them...or need a lift...I'll put it on for the fun of it. :)
Love the colours of this and the flowers are really cute.
Just Glorious!
Lovely calendar page - beautiful colour.

What a unique style for a calender, I love it, you made me laugh with the "big fat snotty glue dots" remark :0 Thank you so much for visiting my blog and thanks for the compliment on my art work...I'm visiting yours and "following", I enjoy your outlook ( the post below about the painted on door ) you have a wonderful and playful sense of humor. I will enjoy visiting your blog again!
Oh that has the WOW factor for definite. Love your page.
Hi Julia, gorgeous calendar page. Fingers crossed the flowers stay put xx
Oooh Julia, that's gorgeous!! Love it.
That's very pretty. Lovely shade of blue! And I don't think your flowers will fall off.
Got a laugh at the "snotty glue dots." Never saw any before, but I appreciate the visuals. I like the look of this and I don't make digital art very well, either. What's worse is, my colored ink is flaky.
Am going to try to visit WOYWW in the morning. I have an early day in my world, so it's still a bit up for grabs.
Beautiful! It looks like a cake with a lot of icing! Yum!
This is BEAUTIFUL!!!
This is fabulous, I must get me more die cuts!
