2011 Calendar ideas

Hi All - this is a scheduled post as I will be on vacation for a few days.

I made this match book calendar from the pdf from Kaiser Craft.
As I played with the print options this is what I came up with:
You can use this calendar different way. As I experimented.....
If you leave it as is - One month per page - you can make a traditional wall calendar.
If you print 4 to a page - you can cut them to a fit the CD (for a future post still in my thought process)
If you print all 12 to a page (I had to set my printer to 16 to one page) you can make the cute matchbook calendars.

Here is my matchbook calendar. (finished size 2 3/4 x 2 1/4")


Rather simple! I used SU ink and paper. The rhinestones I just picked up at M's.
First one to leave a comment will get one in your color choice.

Ornament from a CD

We were challenged at MAF "AFGC - Wk2 CD ORNAMENT" to create an ornament from a CD.

Well I have never altered a CD, but it went together rather quickly and now I am hunting around for more CD's that do not work. Want to make gifts. THis one will be for my daughter's dorm room.

Paper and ribbon from Stampin' Up, the font (2") and snowflakes (2" and 3") are from A Child's Year Cricut cart.

Wedding CD sleeve

Over at Cuttlebug Challenges they posted Easy CD Sleeve Party Favors

Easy!!!! 5 1/2 x 11 piece of cs scored and folded - here is what I made. I went to my nephew's wedding a few weeks back and took 160+ pics so I loaded them on this CD and will mail it to them.
