Happy June!

I’m a June Baby, so this is probably my favorite month of the year. It reminds me of the annual vacations our family would take when I was growing up and all of the great birthdays I’ve had.

I’ve been meaning to play around with the white ink pad and I finally got an idea that I thought would work. I’ve also wanted to use this tile stamp set and also embrace imperfections in my stamping.

Secret Sea continues to be one of my all time favorite Stampin’ Up colors. Also, I was worried about not really having a focal point above the calendar, but I think the embellishments work really well!

The cardstock mat for this calendar is 3 3/4″ x 3 3/4″ and the calendar itself is 3 1/8″ x 1 3/4″. A bit taller this month because of the five weeks.

This calendar template was made by Anne Matasci. She’s been putting out designs for this calendar for years, she has such great ideas. If you’d like to see her design for this month, along with Cheryl Hamilton’s and Sharon Hashimoto Burkert’s, click on the image below. If you’re interested in buying the template, message Anne here.

Happy Pride, and happy crafting!
