This is the 9th anniversary of the WT challenge, and Michelle asked us to use something from a calendar. I took the opportunity to make an anniversary card for my son and daughter-in-law. Their anniversary isn't until June, but I'll be prepared! I bought a couple of mini 2014 calendars at Michaels at the end of last year and have been using bits and pieces of them here and there. I took the spiral coils out and connected the two pages with twine.
Happy Anniversary to the Ways to Use It Challenge -- and also to Doug and Alex!

I hope we can all find the cards me made so far in advance of when they're needed, LOL. This is lovely, Lois - popped out of the gallery for your clever way of replacing the coil with twine to keep a great open calendar look.
