Taylored Expressions Calendar Challenge July

It's time for another Calendar Challenge at Taylored Expressions! If you haven't played along yet, you can find all of the details on Taylor's Blog. The requirement to play is to use TE Calendar products, but TE stamps are NOT required. For everyone who plays in 10 or more of these monthly calendar challenges in 2012, there will be a random draw for a TE prize pack valued at over $150!!! 

I used the Desktop Acrylic Base calendar product along with the Mini Tear-Off Calendar along with the Love Grows Here set.   The papers are from the On the Bright Side One Collection from My Mind's Eye.  I started by die cutting a piece of white cardstock with the Take Note Frame 3 Die and using the Waves and Bubbles Impression Plate on it.  I then stamped the tree image onto the piece and stamped the tree image again onto another piece of white cardstock.  I colored the images and then cut the one out and mounted it on top of the "impressed" one, so the tree is raised while the bees are on the base piece of cardstock.  I die cut a piece of red cardstock using the Fly Your Flag 2 Die and stamped the sentiment.  The border (which is hardly seen) was die cut using the Medium Scallop Border Die. 

If you play along, there will be a linky at the bottom of Taylor's post for you to post your link. It will remain open all year, so you have the option to go back and catch up if you start playing late. The KEYWORD for posting to SCS or other on-line galleries is TECALCHAL. We hope you'll play along! Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the rest of the Calendar Hop!
