HELLO FRIEND easel calendar

Hello everyone, I hope your doing well. It's a been a rough week here as we just had a really bad snow storm that came through last monday. We lost power,no internet, cable, or landline. We finally got our power back on after three long days without it. Today I have a new project to share with you, a easel desk calendar. I wanted to share how I created this simple and easy project that comes together pretty quickly. I have a you tube tutorial included along with easy measurements, and a supply list that I used for this project today.

It lays down flat if you want to try and put it in a envelope, it might need a larger envelope to put it in but I am planning on hand delivering this to a lady down the road from me. She had asked me if I was going to make these this year as I have made some the previous year to give out. I started making these and giving them or sending them with the new mini catalog to my customers. This year I did them a little differently that holds post-it notes in the front with a little box to store them in.

There is a bottom piece that connects it together to help support it when sitting upright on a desk. I started with a piece of BASIC BLACK card stock cut at 4 1/4" X 11" and scored at 5 1/2" for the base. The bottom piece that connects it together is cut at 3" X 4 1/4" and scored on the 3" side at 1/2",1 1/2", and 2 1/2" and the box part is cut at 4 1/4 X 5 1/2" and score it at 2 1/2",and 3" on the 5 1/2" side and on the 4 1/4" side score it at 1/2" and 3 3/4" The (DSP) Designer Series Paper is from the new SALE-a-bration brochure that is cut at 4" X 5 1/4". I cut a strip of basic white card stock at a 1/2" X 1 3/4". I also used the new HELLO FRIEND stamp set that comes with the matching Designer Series Paper. This stamp set and paper is free after a $100.00 order. For the sentiment I used the DAYS TO REMEBER stamp set that is in the annual catalog.

Here is the you tube tutorial for you to follow along with me as I show you how to put it all together. Thank so much for coming by and checking out my blog post today.
