Calendar Girls December - ONE word challenge

Hi everyone! It's December 28th...and time to share our Calendar Girls creations!

This months challenge was a "one word" challenge. We got to choose "one word" to give to the Calendar Girl of the month following our month....so me being Miss April, I gave "one word" to Miss May (Barb). In turn, I received my "one word" from Miss March (April...confused yet??).....and I loved my word. When April sent me my word she explained that her son picked it out......thank you K, great word ☺

Using this "one word" as our inspiration, we are to create a card that expresses our interpretation of that word.....make sense?? I hope so!

I have talked in past posts about my love for the Northwoods of Wisconsin. We have been going up there for a family vacation since I can remember. The thoughts of up north gave me a good idea on how to use my "one word". Ready to know what my "one word" is???? Here goes:

Now...I have tons of up north pictures around here, but this is the one I used for this challenge:



I know that we were to make a card, but my brain went into motion and I asked if we were required to make a card or if it could be and ABAC (anything but a card)....well, with approval I chose an ABAC. Sometimes it feels good to be different ☺

Every year I want to put together a hand-stamped, home made calendar. Now is the perfect time for that, seeing as this is a Calendar Girls challenge!

Here is my creation:



Since we normally go up North in August, that is the month I chose to create. I printed the picture on white GP cardstock, matted it in black, then blue and stuck it to an August Calendar (purchased from Taylored Expressions and printed myself).

Now all I have left to do is start from the beginning of the year and create the other 11 months!

I hope you enjoyed my creation, and that April and K like what I did with my "one word". I can't wait to see what Barb has created....I get the feeling she didn't know what to do with the word I gave her ☺

Thanks for stopping by!!
