All of my 2009 Coaster Calendar Classes are done and now I need to make about 30 of them for 2 of my sisters and myself to give away as gift.
I used 7 coasters and put the month's back-to-back.
- Coaster 1 has the cover and December on it.
- Coaster 2 has January and November on it.
- Coaster 3 has February and October on it.
- Coaster 4 has March and September on it.
- Coaster 5 has April and August on it.
- Coaster 6 has May and July on it.
- Coaster 7 has June and the back cover on it.
Here's the cover.
Simple and easy to make.
Stamp Set: Inspired By Nature
Card Stock: Baja Breeze, Chocolate Chip
Inks: Classic Kiwi Kiss
Accessories: Horizontal Slot Punch, Bella Rose DSP, Scallop Border Punch, Kiwi Kiss/Very Vanilla Satin Ribbon, Metro Retro Sizzix Alphabet.
I have always printed my own calendars, but after doing 90 calendars last year, I wasn't doing it again! I ordered the large calendars from Vippies. I think next year I will use the medium calendars as these are so large, you can't see much of the background. I used my Big Shot and the Snowflake die cut with Shimmery White Card Stock.
Card Stock: Not Quite Navy, Shimmery White
Paper: Urban Garden DSP
Accessories: Big Shot Die Cutting Machine, Snowflake die cut.
I stamped the heart from Always 4 times on Baja Breeze Card Stock and cut them out. They were placed on top of the Urban Garden DSP as accents. The calendar piece was popped up with Stampin' Dimensionals.
Stamp Set: Always
Card Stock: Baja Breeze
Inks: Not Quite Navy
Accessories: Stampin' Dimensionals
I will share 3 more months in the next day or so. You all have a wonderful weekend!







What a great gift idea. I love it. Where did you find the tiny calendar pages. I love using coasters...
