Shabby Chic Perpetual Calendar KitCompleted by Margaret McCartney

I printed the design onto good quality photographic paper and cut it out. Using wet glue I placed the months back to back e.g. January and February would be together etc. I did the same with the days of the week.

I assembled the decoupage and made a pocket from the strip of roses where I could display the day, date and month.

I made an easel base for this card as it makes it easier to display. I used the last layer of decoupage roses as the stopper for the easel. I printed the envelope onto 160gsm paper and I cut it out. I assembled the envelope using strong double sided tape.

A lovely card and gift rolled into one.
