Alright, on to the projects. Traditionally when the squadrons deploy, the spouses put together a deployment calendar. Each day, one page goes up at the Operations Desk. The military members really like it, as it brings a touch of home to a far away place. I made two pages for the calendar; one for DH from the kids and one generic layout for the squadron.
You will notice this page is very similar to the card I made here, but I thought it was so cute! And, the squadron colors are red and black, so how could I pass it up?
Now is the generic squadron version.
I actually cut the panther out on my own so I could give it some dimension with foam tape! I have blogged previously about my inability to cut things, thinking I should have to go back to kindergarten, but I actually did OK! No whiskers were lost in the adventure! I was wondering if the guys would think the panther was too blingy. I wanted to make it look fierce. I thought some fire in the eye would do it...and really shimmery teeth! Good ol' Stickles. Hopefully they won't see it as a drag queen panther!!
Thanks for visiting!

Siobhan, these are great! I LOVE the fingerprint themed page AND the card you did that inspired it! So clever! And I also love the "generic page" (although, I wouldn't call it that!) :) That panther is fierce - I think the guys would dig it - fantastic! I had to LOL with your cutting comment - I think I'm probably cutting challenged also...
The 100 yen store is going to be a tough place for me to visit, I don't think its close by. And the panther is amazing, you did a fab job!
