In the Silhouette Store there is a 99 cent dial calender shape. I bought it when I was browsing the store before my Cameo had even arrived. It looks boring in the stock photo (sorry, Samantha Walker Designs, it does!) but I had an idea that I could spruce it up. My original idea was filling the blank space with a sticky note pad and a pen.
Then my Cameo got here and all the blank space looked intimidating in the Studio software, so I left it alone.
A few days ago the dial calender was featured on the Silhouette Blog and I decided to give it a try. Seeing that blank space filled up actually helped me visualize it better. I abandoned the idea of adding a note pad and just embellished with a cute 99 cent bird & branch shape.
The yellow papers are all 59 cent card stock from Michael's. The dials with the numbers and months, as well as the bird & branch shape, were made with Print & Cut onto white card stock. Steel blue brads and brown twine finish everything off.
I'm glad I gave it a shot. I like how it came out.
