Perpetual Calendar***

































I saw this idea on Debbie Olsen's blog and knew I had to do it!








I had purchased these perpetual calendars a few years ago at Taylored Expressions. I never did anything with them until now.

I used some Mind's Eye designer paper and covered all the open spaces. Before I did that I painted the edges with Ivory craft paint.

I added a piece of black felt to the bottom to keep the surface from getting scratched.

In the first picture the little note pad is sitting up a bit so that you can see the image that I used which is from PTI...


The pen is an RSVP Pentel pen and I used a piece of paper to slide into the barrel.




This was a really fun project and if you have the opportunity to find one of these calendars try it out for yourself.
Thanks a bunch for dropping in!!!
