Thanks to Ariadna Wiczling's Tutorial about "Creating an Inexpensive, Purse-size Calendar...", I was able to create one for myself with Ariadna's, AWL_SSDLO_Cal_4x6. I also used BVA_CalendarYear_BrushSet_2010, to add the next month on the photos page. TCS_SSDLO_4x6_Organizer was perfect for extra pages that I can add into the calendar and make a coordinating phone book, with special dates. With all the beautiful papers that I have, the most difficult part, was to choose the backgrounds for each calendar.

I would like to thank Araiadna for the tutorial and the girls for their wonderful products, that made this project possible. Now I just have to put it together and use it. The best part is, now that I have an idea of what I'm doing, I'll be able to put together a calendar for 2011, in time for Christmas. :-)

Here's the link for the cover and back pages. There are four other pages that follow this one, with the calendars and extras. Thanks for looking and to those who have already left such wonderful comments. :-)

What a great job. I made one similar to this for my mother and MIL for Christmas last year and they really liked them. They're great gifts, if you're able to give them away after spending so much time on them!

Thank you. Yes, I think I can give copies away. It's really not a lot of extra work to put more than one together. I was thinking that the kids might like half a calendar for this year and if they do, I'll know that they'll like one for Christmas. :-)

I love the 4x6 Calendar templates that I used for the calendar, which has psd files that make it so much easier to put the calendar pages together. The Organizer templates, which also have psd files, are wonderful to add into the calendar and for for separate booklets. I also love the Calendar year brush set - it's a simple calendar set, with calendars dates from 2008 to 2013, that are terrific for adding to layouts, as well as for putting the last or next month on your calendar. I've just realized that I could also have made a year at a glance page, for the years 2009 and 2011 with them, so I may do that before I print. I will definitely do that with my 2011 calendar.

I was going to use ASO_Design Pack_4x6_Techno Grunge, to give some border and definition to the organizer pages, but oops! I forgot. Luckily, I've saved my calendars in psd's, so I can still add the borders in before I print. :-)

I'm so happy that I have inspired you to make a purse calendar! It was Ariadna's tutorial about making a purse calendar that got me going. If you would like a copy of it, let me know and I will send it to you. :-)

Happy shopping! I am very pleased with the products that I purchased for my calendar. :-)

Thank you Kerry and Rosemary for your kind comments. :-)
