Prima/Julie Nutting Doll Stamp Calendar

Image
  Some time ago I was involved in a calendar swap on the Craft Mad  forum. We all swapped a calendar with our partner and I was fortunate to be partnered with the lovely Mandy who sent me a calendar with a lovely verse on a decorated panel for each month of the year. I am in love with the Julie Nutting doll stamps so I decided to make a new calendar and incorporate the verses and the stamps.   This is my March  page
