November is here and it's time for another Tiffany Doodles Challenge! We are doing something a little different this month! The challenge is to make "anything but a card"! The Tiffany Doodles design team has come up with some amazing creations and you really must check them out! I decided to create a 2011 calender in 2 different styles! 1) a cd case and 2) 1 page trifold. Both using digi stamps from Tiffany Doodles!
CD Case Calender
For the CD case calender I created a backdrop scene using several stamps, Grass, Label, Lamb, Singing Birds, Birdies & Housework, Sunny Face, & Clouds Set. I also used the calf digistamp on the back cover. I assembled the stamps in Photoshop in a document 300dpi, 4.75"x5.4" (or 1425x1620).I created a PDF template if you would like to make this calender yourself! CD Case Calender PDF template.
For the calender dates I also assembled those in Photoshop and printed on regular copy paper. You can purchase the calender template here and the calender backdrop here. After printing the calender dates I rounded the corners and attached with diamond brads. To change the months simply undo the brads and move the top month to the bottom of the stack, then replace brads. I colored the backdrop with copics in all kinds of colors! Too many to mention, but you get the idea! The back cover contains a shameless plug for anyone that might see your calender and admire it! =) The CD cases came from Papertrey Ink (5 for $3).
1 Page Tri-fold Calender
For the 1 page calender I used 9 digi stamps from Tiffany Doodles! Lotus w/Blossom, Zinnia Bloom w/Blossom, Petal Bloom w/Blossom, Hummingbird, Warbler, Warbler 2, Lilystems w/Oval, Dahlia w/Oval, & Poppy w/Oval. This fun little calender will fit on 1 sheet of paper, then you score it, fold it and just flip it every 4 months! This template is available here. I colored all the digis with copics and then gave each one a little extra zing with stickles glitter! I created a PDF template of this calender too! 1 Page Tri-fold Calender PDF tempate.Thanks for looking!
