Default With Christmas being only 3 months away,

I am starting to think about calendars to make for people. Every year I make them a different type of calendar.

The year before last I made coaster calendars. I forget what i made last year. One year I made CD calendars.

They are always a huge hit.

What's everyone making this year?

Krystle Lee, I LOVE your calendars. So professional looking. This year I'm doing a painting for my daughter. She has asked for one for five years. Won't she be surprised. Paper related--cute gift tags for the first time.

I always want to buy only solid color wrapping papers, like yummy kraft color, and then make really nice tags for my Christmas gifts. I haven't done it yet....maybe this will be the year!

Your daughter is so lucky that you paint! What a special gift!

Shirley, what do you actually receive when you buy the calendars? I looked at the website and couldn't tell. Is it just the numbers laid out for each month and in different size formats?

Krystie, you and JulieHRR"s calendars blew me away! Not only did I purchase the entire calendar package, my list of "must have" Amuse stamps is a mile long!

Buggainok, I explained how to order the A Muse calendars on this thread:
"where do you find those little mini calendars"

Kristielee from A muse has pictures in her gallery too.

I love the International Vanilla Chai (Although I cannot find it ANYWHERE!) and have bought a ton of the tins - of course I collected them when empty and decided this year to cover the tins with decorative paper (from my HUGE stash) trimmed with ribbon and used my Just Rite stamps to personalize them- I filled them with copy paper cut down to 3 inch squares, added a mini gel pen and made a stamped glass pebble magnet - They are all bagged uo , tied with curling ribbons and a Merry Christmas tag - ready to go! I have made 28 of them - still have to get a photo taken and posted!

After you purchase the calendar online, they e-mail you the files. You get color and black and white versions, as well as a perpetual calendar.

The pages have cutting guides, so you'll know exactly where to cut for the size that you purchased. After cutting, you'll have calendars with a small empty space to stamp, add pictures, or decorate any way you want. The calendars on my blog were the A2 size.

I hope that helps!

I bought some blank calendars at Target. They are smaller, but would be great for creating gifts with them. I found them in the $ spot.
