A Star Calendar

Hello, Friends.  I've been meaning to share a project that I made recently.  It's called a star calendar and I just love that it can sit on my desk and be in view at all times.  I had fun decorating each page with die cuts in a theme for each month.  Here are some photos of the pages using some of my favorite dies from Spellbinders, Impression Obsession, MTK, Provocraft, Lawn Fawn, MFT, X Cut and many more brands of die cuts.

It is very easy to assemble.  Create 6 A2-sized card blanks, glue the back of one to the front of another and continue until you have created this star shape.  Now decorate each of the adjacent pages with designer paper, photos, calendar pages, or anything else you choose.  There are examples of this project out there but here is one at Chattering Robins.  Hope you enjoying making your own!

Let's Go Trick or Treating!

Thanks for stopping by A Fourth Life so I can share some Halloween cards

using a darling Just for Fun Stamps silhouette image called 

C346 Trick or Treaters as my focal point. 

Where we live in the mountains, we don't get cute, little munchkins

holding bags and proudly displaying their costumes.

So when I saw this silhouette image, I knew

it would find a home at my house.

The cards started with designer paper, a tree die cut, and a moon silhouette idea.

I ended up with two cards with the same layout because I liked parts of both.

And wasn't it great that my new alphabet dies came just in time!

You can let me know which of the cards you like best.

And card two...

Thanks for stopping by to see my spooky creation!

Spring Colors--Spring has Sprung

Are you having some signs of spring in your area?  Even if you aren't, you can make a card for the FOSTV using spring colors and brighten your day.  Here's my card using the Easter Scene sentiment that I just love.
