Perpetual Birthday Calendar

Years ago I purchased a kit from Stampin’ Up! that is a perpetual birthday calendar.  Without years shown and without days of the week and with only the days of the month listed, I can pencil in birthdays and have a nice stamped wall hanging for the office.  I held a class when the kit came out; you can see that post HERE.  

The kits were unavailable by the time I advertised and collected the fee so I made my own calendar kit as close to the original as possible.

Such a fun memory, however I never completed my calendar.  It is hard being a hostess and attempting to stamp a project at the same time, so my kit was put away to prepare for the next event.  It is time to work on my PHD (projects half done) so, out came the kit, and I finished it.

The sheets are 4 1/4 X 10 3/4, two could be printed on a sheet of white cardstock – just remember to watch for the number of days in the month.

“Thirty days hath September, April, June and November, all the rest have 31 except February.”

Thanks, Sal, and February this year has 29 and my printout only has 28.  The pdf file does have 29.

The stamp set that went with the kit is The Perpeteual Birthday Calendar.  It has fantastic background stamps you will see me use.  However, through the years I have purchased so many additional stamps and dies that I had a plethora of things to choose from.

October uses left over pieces from a Paper Pumpkin.  November uses a tiny ‘thanks’ from Waterfront, an acorn from ‘Time of Year’, another paper pumpkin piece and Itty Bitty Banners. December used ‘Holiday Invitation’ for the holly leaves.

.  Kind-of messy pictures.   

They are Sal, because I didn’t take time to straighten and size and brighten the color on each one.  I just needed to journal them for future reference.  I think the calendar would make a nice craft booth product.  It is an office decoration more than a necessary birthday reminder since our smart phones do that, but it sure is a quick look vs several clicks on the phone.

And now you can pencil in names!

Yes, and I do use a pencil since we have had so many folks come and go in our lives.

March 7 we will be celebrating 17 years of being in this house!   That is a record for us!  All but two of the neighbors on either side of us, across from us and behind us are new from when we moved in.

.  Ummmm…. and Paul’s birthday?

Yes, we closed on the house on his birthday so that will be a fun celebration as well.

Riddle for today:

I am an odd number.  Take away one letter and I become even.  What number am I?
