The best part of a homemade calendar is that you can start it whenever you want...not just the first of the year! I came upon this awesome FREE calendar download from
Heidi Swapp. I decided to try making a flip calendar from a regular picture frame.
I picked up a 4x6 pic frame at the Dollar Tree. I covered the frame's chipboard backing piece with a piece of decorative paper (from Heidi's Sugar Chic line). I removed the glass from the frame. Next, I lined up where I wanted my holes for the rings and used my Crop-A-Dile to punch holes in the frame backing and the calendar sheets.
After labeling, stamping, and adding a few tabs and washi tape to each month, I lined the pages up and attached on the rings. All set to start October!
Plus, I can add pictures and journaling between the months and later form a nice little memory book for the year. This was very easy, and you can add as many embellishments to fit your own style.
P.S. Do you like the rhinestone clip on the front page? I'll share that with you in an upcoming post.
