Hi there! Today I’m sharing a fun way to create a custom calendar using some of the The Are the Days release products from The Greetery.
I used the Birth Month Blooms Stamp set to stamp the blooms on the cover along with a sentiment from One Fine Day.
Each calendar page was stamped using the Calendar Basics Set. I then blended the color into the grids using the Calendar Grid Stencil.
I added blooms to each calendar page using the Birth Month Blooms sets.
I used the Spiral Bound Die to add the top spiral border to each page and then bound it with the gold coils.
Using the Calendar Basics set I could customize the name of the month, day of the week as well as adding hearts to certain days for birthday reminders.
Here’s a video showing how I created this calendar.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

You had me thinking that you FOR SURE were going to say “Pump up the VOLUME” but you hedged with forms of “vibrance” a/o “vibration.” 🤣🤣🤣
Love your creation. I agree that stamping all the dates w/in the individual months would get a smidge tedious….but the result is cool. I was just going to order the full or half-pages to avoid having to stamp all the #s but I can’t afford all the floral images and dies, so………. As far as “with/without” images, if I’m really trying to make a calendar, the idea that 1/3 of the dates are going to be not visible thanks to floral additions to the page does not hold a lot of sparkle for me. I’ll think on it for a bit….. Maybe if I make a larger area around the calendar grid, then I can fit the florals. Now I just have to figure out how to pay for them. 🤣
Lovely calendar!

July 30, 2024 at 3:45 pmLovely calendar pages! I didn’t order the calendar pages or half-pages … and stamping out the full month for all twelve is a lot. We’ll see.. for now I did not order the flowers, dies of flowers… I ordered other items. I like how your work turned out (what’s new?). I thought for sure you were going for “Pump up the VOLUME (dance,dance).” But you went for “vibrancy” and “vibration” or some such. Yes, the line from the song is “Morning by morning new mercies I see… All I have needed thy hand hath provided.” It’s from “Great is Thy Faithfulness.”
You’re such a fun crafter to watch!
