2025 Flip Over Desk Calendar ~ September
Welcome to my Corner of the World
For the last 4 – 5 years I have designed and enjoyed making my flip over desk calendar for the ladies who came to my classes. As I have done for the last few years I am going to be sharing one at the start of each month. Like last year, I recognize not everyone is into making 3D items so have created a card for each month, using elements from the calendar for that month. .
Here we are on the cusp of autumn, the leaves are starting to turn here in the UK. So today I share, September pumpkins and rustic leaves, with a very easy fancy fold for the card alternative.

Welcome to my Corner of the World
Are you tired of storing your precious Artist Trading Cards in a cluttered and disorganized way? Look no further! In this video, I share a creative storage solution that will keep your cards safe and easily accessible.

Also laugh along with me when I goober up crimping the spine at the end – although I have it sorted now!!!!!

Welcome to my Corner of the World
Well, HELLO August ~ 7 months into the year that seemed like it only started a few weeks back!
For the last 4 – 5 years I have designed and enjoyed making my flip over desk calendar for the ladies who came to my classes. As I have done for the last few years I am going to be sharing one at the start of each month. Like last year, I recognize not everyone is into making 3D items so have created a card for each month, using elements from the calendar for that month. .
So today I share, an ocean/beachy sort of theme for my calendar and card. I know that most schools in the US will be starting their fall semester in the next few days, but here in the UK the schools finished about 7 – 10 days ago so beach holidays are very much in the present here!

Welcome to my Corner of the World
Today’s challenge is to use a card sketch. Card Sketches are an amazing way to unleash your creativity! They guide you in placing your elements, and in today’s video, I’m diving into that process! With the freedom to choose colors, greetings, and my focal point, the sketch leads the way for where to put everything on my card.
