The Cutting Cafe - Calendar Inspiration!

Welcome to some Calendar inspiration from the Cutting Cafe!  Today we're playing with the Calendar Holder with Front Box and the 2020 Calendar and I had lots of fun with mine!

The calendar comes in a bunch of different formats and sizes and I love that it has a front box to hold a Post-It pad and an optional box/tray that slides in at the bottom of the holder.  The holder is a big heavy with the Post-It pad in it, so it worked out perfectly to put some binder clips and a few other supplies in the tray, including my extra calendar pages.

I decided I wanted to use this Caffeinated Boxer from TRHD for my holder and when I remembered I had the dog house die from Honey Bee I knew they'd work together perfectly with this holder!

What a fun addition to my desk this will make!  And it would make a great holiday gift for anyone on your list too!  You could personalize it for the recipient.  So as not to cover up my dog house, I am using a simple dog bone paperclip to display my monthly calendar.  You could add it to the front of the Post-It box though if you wanted.

Eep!  I think everyone in my office is going to want one!...lol!  I might make a couple for my favorites.

The Cutting Cafe - Folded Calendar Inspiration!

Welcome to some Cutting Cafe Inspiration!  Today we're playing with the 2019 Folding Calendar!  This is a fantastic, easy and fun file to play with!  The size is around 3x8 as it comes, but it could easily be modified to a smaller size if you wanted.  It's the perfect size to throw into a purse or bag for a quick reference.

I cut mine from some heavy kraft cardstock... the perforations that the file creates help this to fold SO easily and lay so flat.  I tried to keep it that way so I chose some pretty Arizona papers from my LSS and simply added the 2019 on the front using some die cuts.  I chose to keep mine closed with some ribbon, although a cool elastic type band would help to make it more purse friendly, so I'm going to see about getting something like that.  But for now, the green ribbon makes me smile!

I decorated the inside calendars using a cactus stamp set and then I highlighted important dates with color coded hearts.

I added my coding on my "Notes" page, but the cool part is I could replace this page any time with a new fresh notes page if I want.

And I printed this cute sentiment from the 2019 Planner file and foiled it to decorate the inside... I love this saying!  It's a good reminder...

 

These would make fantastic gifts too!  You could make them in any color and decorate as much or as little as you want!

So fun!
