I'm making a calendar for hubby to keep at the office........the home office or the Denver office......either one!!! I actually started with June........why?? Well because it's our anniversary and I found this photo of us from years ago celebrating an anniversary and just totally got into the mood to make the June calendar page!!! LOL As you can see.........the Calendar Grid is all laid out for you.....then the numbers, symbols, images, words, etc. are limitless!!! Well, almost!! ;) You can tell June 3rd is our Anniversary........I also marked other holidays that are commonly found on the calendar for June..........Father's Day and the first day of Summer. I now can't wait to sort thru older photos and make all the rest of the months!!!! As long as I have bling that is!!! LOL
