I know I'm a couple days late. Life was not letting me craft. But I finally was able to sneak in my craft room today. I totally slacked and didn't get 3 done last time so I have 5 more to make these 3 weeks to get my calendar finished. But I will say I'm farther along then I would have been if I wasn't hosting this challenge.

We are going to challenge each other
to make and complete a calendar by September.
I figured we can do 3 pages in 3 weeks....surely we can! For every page

It is not too late to get motivated to work on a calendar for a Christmas gift. Christmas is only 5 months away so time to start on those crafty Christmas gifts!!
Here are 2 pages for me so only one to go in this round. I hope to get the third one done tomorrow night! Wish me luck! And I see AJ of AJ's Creative Energy also has one more month to go on this round!! Come on AJ you can do it!! Also, a big Congratulations to Shelly of Ink & Sew who has completed 3 calendar pages for Part 2!! Thursday will start Part 3 of the Calendar Challenge!
The first 3 weeks of the challenge is done and so far I have kept up! Just barely but I managed. Now it is time for Part 2 of the challenge where you have another 3 weeks to make 3 calendar pages!! Even if you didn't get the first 3 done jump right in and you will be closer to having a Calendar done which is the perfect Christmas Gift.
For my inspiration I used Sketch #36 from Sketch -N- Scrap. What is so awesome about this site is that it has BOTH card and scrapbook sketches. The best of both worlds all in one place!!

I told you this Calendar Challenge is going to help me get this done otherwise it would still be in the "Need to Finish Pile!!" Which I don't need to add anything else to that pile!
I finished February and March 2014 Calendar Pages for my 12 x 12 Calendar.
I will post February tonight but March (and hopefully April) will be posted on Thursday, 07/25/2013, with the new challenge to get 3 more pages done!!
Hope you will join me in completing a calendar by September!
It is time for another Gift Idea Tuesday and today I made Calendars! Do you realize that Christmas is 5 1/2 months away?! Not that far away so I figured I better start coming up with Christmas Gifts. I decided that Clearly Digi Stamps has so many cute digital images that would look terrific on a calendar that someone would be getting a calendar this year! Well, now that I got making them I think I'm keeping them...ssshhh don't tell anyone!
I went to the store and bought a 12 x 12 and 8 x 8 blank calendar. I also bought the number stickers to fit in the little boxes.
First I started with the traditional 12 x 12 Calendar and treated it like a scrapbook page. I used this sketch from my friend, Melissa W. See her sketches at her gallery on scrapbook.com or her new challenge blog, Simple Sketches.
When I started out with wanting to make a calendar it was going to be a Christmas gift for some lucky family member. But when I started looking for photos I didn't have any that would work. I realized how neglectful I have been in taking photos. So that got me thinking....I will make it without photos and challenge my self to take photos that can fit into the layout. That way I will take more photos and have a scrapbook page done when that month is over. My plan is to cut that page off and stick it in an album when that month is over!
I also wanted to show that you can make a calendar without photos. If you can make a card you can make a calendar! I took this card sketch from My Favorite Things Wednesday Stamp Club Challenge 130 (MFTWSC130) and used it as my inspiration for the calendar page....it's just a big card front!
I think I'm keeping the 8 x 8 for me to take to work next year! Much better then the free ones you get in the mail!
I also made a card to show you how a card sketch can work for the calendar and a card! I just used the scraps left over from the calendar page so it worked out perfectly! Now I have one card done for Christmas too!
Now, you want to know where the challenge is in this, right?
We are going to challenge each other
