Better late than never...

It's been a while since I posted regularly. This lack of posting is mainly due to my insane travel schedule which has seen me out of the country more than I've been in it so far this year. Things haven't slowed down but I have found myself with 5 mins to share something that I made back in December. I made two of these calendars - one for each set of parents for Christmas. It was a great gift idea and lots of fun to do. The key ingredient in this project is the Days-To-Remember Catalogue. The best bit about this... it's a gift that gives beyond the year. After you've finished using the calendar you can tear out the pages and put them in a scrapbooking album. The gift that keeps on giving. I'm going to stop writing now as there are a LOT of photos to post. Hope you enjoy it. Thanks for stopping by. Sally

It's a really simple technique and you only need ink an a sponge dauber. There are so many ways you can use this technique - not just for edges like I'm showing you today. You can sponge backgrounds, cut outs, and more. For this card I decided just to sponge the edges of the punched sentiment to add a vintage feel to the card. Taking a sponge dauber and pressing it into the ink pad a few times to get it inked up, I gently brushed it against the edges of the punched out sentiment. Starting light at first I layered up the colour around the whole edge to a depth I was happy with. It's a really easy technique but if you've never done it before I recommend practicing on some scrap paper to get a feel for it. Start with only a small amount of ink on your dauber or sponge. Remember you ...
