Lauren meader template and SCAL.!!

I was so excited last week I decided to purchase the program scal my main reason for this was that I love Lauren Meaders templates and you can purchase them in the format of SVG files so that your Cricut can cut them.
Her templates are only 5.00$ to purchase and they are so versatile.
This template is called Card catch all.
The pages are like a calender for you to write Birthday and Anniversary reminders or just general notes.
You can even use the box to put make up and smellies in as a gift.
This set is for my mothers in laws birthday.
Papers were from my stash.
Bird punch is the New stampin up punch on sale from April.
Sentiment is from Lauren Meaders stamps.

The set below I made for a friend with a little note book.
