More Calendar fun

For this calendar I used the Painted Love designer series paper, Calypso Coral and Melon Mambo cardstock. I used the Colorful Seasons stamp set and the Seasonal Layers Thinlits. I've had the directions to this type of calendar on here before, but am reprinting them for convenience here. This one is now sitting next to my computer:)  You can get a printable calendar here.

1. Base calendar: cut 4-1/4 x 11 score at 5-1/2
2. Easel mechanism: cut 4-1/4 x 5 score at 1, 2-1/2, 4 inches
3. Fold the center line of the easel mechanism in mountain position, then the two score lines on either
side are valley folds. (It looks like a tent with side flaps.) Miter edges.
4. With the base calendar in the mountain position, stand it over the easel mechanism. Adhere the flaps to the inside of the base calendar to make it stand.
5. To line the flowers up on the branch, refer to the diagram below. Look at just three flowers.
