November Club Projects - Calendar

One of the things I love doing is a calendar every November

This year I received a calendar from one of my retreat attendees - thanks Lenore

I used this idea for my calendars this year

I have to share a little "red-faced" incident about the calendars frames

I ordered them from Amazon and when I got them, I was a bit disappointed because they seemed "opaque"

But I went ahead and made my samples 

And then comes club night.  I handed out the frames and low and behold Holly (my daughter) looked at it

and tore off the "opaque" layer

I totally missed that!!  I was a bit embarrassed, but glad she caught it!

So if the one above looks "dull", it's because I was "dull"!!

 

Measurements

I'm not going to add the colors, since each person will choose their own theme, but I used the Hues of Happiness DSP (designer series Paper), and coordinated my cardstock with the pattern I used

Cardstock 5 3/4" x 3 3/4"

DSP 5 1/2" x 3 1/2"

That piece goes in the "picture" area

We mounted the calendar on the front

Cardstock 4 1/4" x 2 3/4"

Cardstock 4" x 2 1/2"

I ordered the frames from Amazon and the little calendars from Vippies.com

The calendars are 3" x 2 1/4"

I also added some Tear & Tape Adhesive to the bottom of the calendar - the top has adhesive, but adding adhesive to the bottom secures it a bit better
