My First Handmade Calendar

This is my first handmade calendar. :) Well. I am going to give it away to a friend this sunday as christmas present - so i decided to take photos for every piece that i made :) This calendar looks simple - just paper and some stamps - but it took me at least 10 hours to mix and match and finalize the design. For certain expert - it might takes 2 hours only. Hee hee.

Well, I bought a photo frame from home deco (which is quite cheap - cost me about 2USD only) and remove all the holders and remain just the acrylic and the ring. After complete everything, i punch 2 holes each piece and join them together. Tadah... here comes the calendar!

Obviously i use Cuttlebug (my most recent toy) to cut out this 2009 :) And i use my favourite colour as cover - Brown and Blue. This piece of glitter paper is from DCWV - Butterflies Sayings. I cut out my favourite part and made it into the cover.

I thought i can make the whole thing looks consistent (with same style and layout) but i failed :) However i think generally still.. ok :p I play with buttons a lot.

I hope my friend will like this :)
