I know I'm a bit late in the year to be making a calender but I've been having a sort out and I came across a freebie calender that my dad was given at work and then passed on to me, this is the calender....
I thought it was crying out to be altered.
I thought it was crying out to be altered.
Now, are you a fan of recycling? Do you see rubbish and think Oooh I know just what I could do with that! Well, I bought a fantastic Tim Holtz ruler from Charmed Cards and Crafts recently and I kept the packaging because I saw the plastic casing and thought it would make brilliant pockets - I know- I'm mad! LOL
Here's the packaging....
Put it together and what do you get? Bippity-Boppity-Boo!
The idea of the flowers along the top was inspired by a fabulous card that Karen made the other day. The papers are Basic Grey-Boxer and the digi image is Holly at Work from the original Holly & Madison collection.
Have a lovely day,

What an adorable calendar! Who would have thought it was ever the way it was before?! I might have to try that one out once we've moved, I could do with one for my desk! I love the way you've done the pencil section, and the flowers look fab with that little clip. Basic Grey papers are one of my faves.
You've helped save the environment too! Well done you! It's gorgeous (ps - thank you for your lovely note on my blog the other day) :o)
that is really cute, isnt it amazing what you can do with some paper, colours and a little imagination, well done, i love it!!!
