Good Morning Crafty Friends! Today’s share is a Handmade Easel Calendar created with the Stampin’ Up! Charming Day stamp set and coordinating Charming Day dies.

The flowers were colored with Stampin’ Blends Alcohol Markers and finished with Baker’s Twine and Charming Shimmer Faceted Dots. 💐

This DIY Easel Calendar makes a Quick & Easy Handmade Gift—perfect for Christmas, birthdays, or any special occasion! 🎁
