Each year, my paper crafting friend, Linda White, sends me a handcrafted desk calendar. I’m proud to share Linda’s 2021 CD holder calendar today! Thank you, Linda, for allowing me to showcase your creative genius!
The calendar sits in a plastic CD case like an easel.
WHERE TO FIND THE CALENDARS! Linda purchases her pre-printed calendars from eBay seller, Painter410 – you can find Painter410 by clicking here. She buys the CD cases in bulk from calendarcase.com but they are often available on Etsy and Amazon. They are usually called calendar case jewel CD holders.
FREE PDF TUTORIAL & SUPPLY LIST! The PDF for Linda’s calendar can be downloaded by clicking the graphic below. It contains a list of ALL the supplies and many details used for each month.
Do you have a favorite month from Linda’s calendar? Please share it with a comment HERE.
Each base color is listed. The base piece of card stock measures 4 3/4 x 5 1/2. Each calendar measures 3 1/2 x 5 and is matted on a 3 3/4 x 5 1/4 piece Basic Black card stock. Many products are retired but can easily be substituted if you don’t have them. I have included links to past calendars at the end of this post for even more inspiration!
