May Desk Calendar

Today I want to share a closer look at my May desk calendar page.  Two of the things I love are seasonal holidays and inspirational sentiments.  So, I incorporated both into into this calendar.  Here is May's theme in turquoise, peach, black and kraft colors.

This is a fun birthday cupcake greeting card design.  I love these colors of mint green and peach.
