Every year I create calendars to give as gifts to the grandparents and aunts and uncles separated by the miles. I scooped up Karla Dudley’s 2011 Calendar templates to whip up a quick and easy hybrid calendar. I also added a piece of Karla’s Fly Girl Paper and Karla’s Brushes:
- Open Calendar Template in Photoshop
- Drag picture into template, clip to photo mask (Alt-Click).
- Repeat process to create each page, save copy to flash drive.
- I opened a patterned paper from Karla’s Fly Girl kit and dragged it under the book plate and date sticker.
- I also added a circle brush to the paper.
- I added text to the center of the circle brush and then duplicated each item 3 times for each of the calendars I was planning to make.
- I printed this sheet on plain white cardstock at home.
- I die cut these shapes with spellbinder circles to adhere to the front and back of my calendars.
- I took my flash drive to target and printed each page on 4×6. Even though the file is square, it just added white bars to the side.
- I trimmed these to 4.25″x4″.
- I punched holes in the side with my zutter bind it all.
- I cut raw chipboard sheets to the same size and punched those in the bind it all as well.
- I sandwiched the front and back covers together and all the pages under that
- I threaded the binding coils in through the back
- slowly squeeze the coils together in the bind it all.
- voila!
Thanks for stopping by! Love Love and blog you later,
Joscie, rhymes with bossy!
