Gnome Perpetual or Event Calendar













Gnome Event Calendar Workshop

Well, I started out in early Fall designing this calendar in hopes to have it done by November 21, 2020...but it was 2020 and pretty much everything that I planned in 2020 did not work out the way I wanted it to.

I needed a New Event Calendar for myself, thought it would be a good Christmas Gift idea for my parents and then thought why not offer it as a workshop as well.

My mom & son have a Gnome Thing together and with TJ home with me 24/7...he kind of encourages me to buy lots of Gnome Scrapbooking supplies...not that I need much encouragement.

So, I decided to put all my Gnome Supplies to good use. 

I used SVGs, Simon Says Stamps & Dies, CTMH Stamps & Dies, Photo Play Stamps & Dies, Jaded Blossom Stamps and various other companies for papers & embellishments.

When I was left alone in my scrap room to create, I had a blast and got lost in the process. It felt good.

FYI, my 9 year old, busy body, not so quiet son is still doing Virtual School in my Scrap Room...so that is FUN and didn't leave me a lot of time to create alone in my Scrap Room.

Nonetheless, I love how it turned out. 

July is probably my favourite month because it is totally "Thunder Bay Canadian". Thunder Bay is known for our beautiful Sleeping Giant attraction.

November is my second favourite, but I think that is because it was the first gnome stamp that I bought and I was so excited to finally use it.

I am very proud of how I was able to incorporate Thanksgiving & Halloween together with the help from Photo Play's Thanksgiving Gnome Stamp Set...that gnome dressed up as a turkey is WAY TOO CUTE!

FYI...Thanksgiving & Halloween are both in October for us Canadians and where we live...we normally always have snow in November.

Happy New Year!
