Today’s project I thought I would show you a great Teacher/Co-worker gift.  This is a great inexpensive gift for the Holidays, but it also is a great gift year-round as a Thank You, Birthday, or Just Because.  This Easel Desktop Calendar is quick, simple, and fun to put together.  In fact, it comes together so nicely that you can make multiples in a short amount of time.

I had fun showcasing these two different designs in my Weekly Crafting Facebook Live this week.  Currently, I am in Craft Fair Mode and these are always one of my top sellers.  I am doing an up-and-coming craft fair in November for a special Cause.  We are doing a pet-themed event and I thought the adorable Sweet Stockings Designer Paper was the perfect background for this easel card. Most of the Animal prints are Christmas-related, however, this specific pattern is perfect for year-round.

Here is one of my favorite patterns in the In Good Taste Designer paper out of the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog.  I am also using one of my favorite sentiments from the Color and Contour Stamp Set, “You’re Absolutely Amazing”.  This is the perfect encouragement sentiment.
