Special Dates to Remember

Hi All,
Been working on this File Folder by AJ Otto, loved her idea and turned mine into a Dates to remember folder.

Here's my front view, Looks Innocent enough.....

The next pic will show some of the work it took..

with the folder making 4 folders I broke the year up into the 4 seasons....

The first one here is Winter and I made a card for each month the first is January with the days down the left side and the rest for your special events...BD, Weddings, Anniversary's, etc..... I also filled in the Holidays for each month... and for each season I made a Book mark.

In is pic you can see the month and Book mark a little better...

And I did the same for each month and just stacked Jan, Feb, March in the first folder and April, May, June in the next and so on......

This is Summer on the left and Fall on the right......

This pick is just to show how the folded area looks... the ribbon hold it tight because I taped it to the front and back....next time I may just tape it to the front.... if there is a next time. 

the whole think took me quit a while with the rest of life's duties.   

My Hubby said "It's really very nice, and I don't want to heart your feelings, but most people don't keep track of anything on paper any more you know." and my reply was I know but I just had to make it... 

I LOVE to read ALL Comments, so please leave one!!!!!
Thanks for stopping by again!
Hope you Enjoyed!!

Mom's Mother's Day Card

Hi Everyone!

I know I'm EARLY but want to show you the card I made my Mom for Mother's Day.

It's one of the Calenders I've been making but for hers I put in all the family dates and there's still plenty of room for her to add others too!

You know me I had to fancy up the front....

and here's a closer look.......

And the inside.... I did the hanger part a little different here. 

I left the calender part lose from the fold down so I could write a message under it...

Like the Springy look of this one, and know she will too!! (you know Mom's love everything we do)

If you liked what you see become a Follower either on Blogger or by Email.

I'd love to have you!!!

Thanks for stopping by again!

Hope you Enjoyed!!
