6 x 6 Calendar

Each year at Christmas my Mom gets a new calendar.  She is a devout Catholic.  One year, one of the grandkids gave her a calendar because they thought it had such cut stories for each date.  She opened it and it was a Jewish calendar.  We laughed and laughed and laughed.  She loved that calendar!  We could never find another like it but each year we look.  So, this year I decided to craft her calendar.  They are 6 x 6 slipped into a protector and they hang from a wooden holder I purchased from Taylored Expressions.  I painted the wood.  She seemed to love it and now I will be challenged to create new pages each year.  Being in her 80's it is hard to find something to give her.

Making a calendar is one of the projects I would like to tackle but I seem not to have time. Yours is so cute. The embellishments and images you used are perfect. I know your mom will love it. TFS
