CUP OF TEA CALENDAR STAND

I did this fun little project for my Facebook live today. Considering all the problems I had today with the project not coming together easily, I think the project came out really cute and I am happy with it.

This is a fun and easy little project. You can get two stands out of a 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of cardstock. Just be careful what you decide to put next to the calendar. You don't have a lot of room!

Cut 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 Pool Party, score with the 8 1/2" side at the top at 1/2, 3 1/2, 4 1/2, 5 1/2, fold the center score lines Mountain, valley to form the stand portion
I chose to decorate the front before putting the stand together
Cut 5 1/2 x 1 1/2 Basic Black, adhere along the bottom section of the front panel, the front panel is the one with the 1/2 score line,

Cut 5 1/2 x 1 1/4 DSP, adhere to black panel
Cut 3 1/4 x 2 1/2 Basic Black attach the calendar from Taylored Expressions to that panel, adhere to the front of the stand
Die cut the cup in Basic Black using Cup of Tea dies
Die cut the cup design in Basic White using Cup of Tea dies attach to black cup
Stamp the 2 leaves in Pool Party, then one more after stamping off to make it lighter, die cut, attach two to the front of the stand, attach the 3rd to the back of the tea cup
Attach the tea cut to the front of the stand using Dimensionals

Put Tear N Tape on the 1/2 strip, attach to the back by laying it down folding the bottom in. They should meet up perfectly
Tie a bow and attach with a Mini Glue Dot to the bottom of the plants!!
