Each year I try and give a little gift to those in my first
downline for the holidays. I wasn't able to complete anything by the time of my Holiday Party - so I had to send them after. So these cute little easel card calendars went out to them last week. You know how projects sometimes seem like they're going to be easy, but then........well that was this project. I did 15 of them in three different color schemes - and tried to match the colors to the ladies likes - so I hope I did well.
Where it got a little crazy was downloading, sizing, printing and cutting the calendars - it took soooo long. Plus there was a little coffee spill mishap that ruined the first set I made, so I had to start over. Then cutting out 45 of those flowers was no small task either - but I think they turned out cute.

| All 15 ready to go! They fit perfectly in our SU square envelopes and only took two stamps to mail. |

| Here is one folded flat and ready to slip into the envelope. |
Hope my gals enjoyed getting them - I appreciate them so much - and truly value their friendship. Next year these might be co-worker gifts.
