Monthly Calendar Challenge

It's a lovely sunny day here today.

No Uni or work for me today as I am home with a sick child. Hoping she is feeling better soon and that no one else catches her bug. Today I have a few pages to share with you. I finally have a printer that is playing nicely and I have managed to catch up on all my calendar pages. I love looking back each month and seeing what we got up to. It's a great family diary.

Tracy shares her page with us today.

Here are my July calendar pages. As you can see, I’m still taking a photo-a-day for the year and loving all the little memories it is preserving. This month has been added fun as I’ve been taking the photos for Kim’s August challenge (as well as my normal photo-a-day photos), so it will be fun to see the collage that she puts together from what everyone sends in. Hope you are having a great day today – beautiful sunshine here, almost a taste of spring

Regards TracyM

  

Here are my overdue pages. I have been using a different Fiskars border punch each month. Love the simplicity.

Hope you are all having a great day, cheers Dawn

Calendar Challenge

How's everyone going with their calendar challenge? Tracy shares her latest page with us.

I have used a sketch by the amazingly talented artiste Allison Davis and highly recommend anyone to go visit her site.  I haven’t got any of her books yet but she shares some wonderful sketches on her site, along with layouts showing variations she has done with each one.   She is also a fellow Fiskateer J 

 

Thanks for sharing Tracy.

May Calendar Challenge

How is everyone going with their calendar challenge. I am running a little behind with mine as my printer hasn't been behaving. Hopefully over the weekend I will be able to share them with you.

Today we have Robyn's lovely May Calendar Challenge to share with you. Great work Robyn.

April Calendar Challenge

Well the months are flying by already. I really can't believe we are already halfway through May. I have loved seeing everyone's calendar challenges coming into my inbox. Once again ladies thanks so much for taking part. Remember it's never too late for anyone to jump in and join in the fun.

First up I have Tracy's page to share.

Tracy emailed saying

Where are all the days going?  I cannot believe how quickly we are zooming through 2010!!!

 

I am still plugging away with my photo-a-day, some days there are way too many photos and it can be very hard to chose just one.   Finally got all my photos selected and started playing with Picasa (again....I am loving it and learning more each month).  As you know, I am doing each month as a double layout and started off with two A4 collages then thought I would challenge myself and try to use a sketch.  I have used a sketch from Scrapbooking Ali (aka Allison Davis) who has generously shared some sketches on the Fiskateer site, along with some on her own blog as well.  Ended up with 2” square photos to suit the 6x4 photo format but I’m still quite happy with the result.  My husband is my super scrapping assistant and helps me out, especially when I am tossing up between several photos or different coloured papers.  I should have known he would pick the bright orange as the main background colour for this month’s pages - I think he has more than a bit of Fiskateer blood flowing through his veins J

 

Anyway, as always, we had a fun time looking back on the month that was and hope you enjoy our memories too,

Fisk-a-smiles J
