2011 Calendar

So here's my 2nd creation of the beginning of the year. I'm using "Sweet Heart Birgitta". This calendar measures 8-1/2" tall x 5-1/2" wide. I created the calendars in excel using DJ inkers images and fonts. I also used "The Cinch" to bind the calendar together. I added pockets on the inside of the front and back covers. Hopefully I'll be able to create more while I'm still reorganizing my craft room. It's a never ending story with my craft room. I'm going through some craft things that I want to get rid of but it sure takes a lot of time to go through everything. Anyway thanks for stopping by and Have a Great Week!

2011 Calendar and Note holder

Sorry I've been MIA for a while! I'm sure you all know how hectic it's been during the Holiday season!! I started creating my new calendars for 2011 several months ago and finally finished it this past weekend. I had fun making these calendars and wish that I started earlier this year instead of rushing this. I also wanted to make a simple note holder and ended up making the "Box in a bag" for the note paper and pen. I made these for some friends and hope they will like them. I ran out of blank coasters and could not find them anywhere on this island. I guess you can say because of the holiday season they were all sold out. I decided that I will be ordering it bulk from the mainland and I'll never run out. I bought some a while back when I went to a craft fair in Mililani. Hope to get back into the swing of paper crafting soon. Thanks for stopping by and Have a Great Hump Day!!

2010 Calendar Holder

Can't believe the weekend went by so quickly! I didn't get to craft much but posting something that I've been working on this past week in between re-organizing my craft room.

I've created a calendar case for my 2011 calendar. The calendars shown is actually from previous years as I am in the process of creating my 2011 calendars. Here I used Miss Anya Lounge for the front cover. The calendars are created from the DJ Inkers clipart.

To open the cover you need to untie the bow at the bottom then flip it over.

There is another bow already on the inside that is tied from the inside of the box.

Then you need to tie a bow after you flip the cover over to create the stand to hold the holder up.

Hope you all have a great week and thanks for stopping by to check out my creation.

"2010" Calendar

I finally got the chance this weekend to make something crafty. I've been seeing the easel cards and calendars while visiting other blogs and wanted to try it out. I tried many different sizes and finally got the size I wanted. I also changed it a little and used my calendar that I created so I could have the calendar standing up inside of it laying flat. I'm going to take it to work and try it out to see if I like it. If it works out okay I'll be making a few for some friends. Hopefully I'll be able to start creating more stuff and start posting more.

I also want to change my blog background and hopefully I'll be able to find the time to do it. Thanks for stopping by and Have a Great Week.
