Can you believe that this year is almost over!? Neither can I!
 
For this month, I made an Easel Calendar for my desk so I can keep track of the date. I used the gorgeous NEW Simple Moments Timepiece Cling Stamp Set and it's matching die! It measures 5"x5" and I used white cardstock for the base. I used the Dazzling Dahlia Paper Collection for the background and distressed the edges before adhering it to the card base.
 
I used the Small Wild Rose Cling Stamp Set and matching die to make the roses, which I colored using inks in red and yellow. I used the leaves from the Leafy Accents Cling Stamp Set and matching dies for as well as the Holly Berry Spray Cling Stamp Set for the greenery. I used the Fragrant Hyacinth Cling Stamp Set flowers and matching die for the small yellow filler flowers. 

For the tiny calendar, I used this Website to print one out and then just cut it, staple it, and added it to the front of the easel card. I also added a Sticky Note pack to hold the easel card up.
 
Here's another view of the Easel Calendar closed.
