Each year, my paper crafting friend, Linda White, sends me a handmade annual desk calendar. I’m proud to share Linda’s 2025 CD holder calendar today! Thank you, Linda, for allowing me to showcase your creative genius year after year!
where to buy calendar supplies
blank 3.5 x 5 calendars
Linda purchases her pre-printed calendars from eBay. The previous vendor is no longer selling them, but she found another vendor, similar in pricing and style. The seller id is Quick Connections Office Supplies and you can purchase them by clicking the button below.
cd cases for the easel
Linda buys the CD cases in bulk from calendarcase.com (direct link below) but they are often available on Etsy and Amazon. They are usually called calendar case jewel CD holders.
sizing and calendar supplies
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!
FREE PRODUCT SUPPLY LIST WITH SIZING! The product supply list with sizing for Linda’s calendar can be downloaded by clicking the button below. It contains a list of ALL the supplies and many details used for each month.
