Even though I use the Calendar on my phone quite a bit, there's nothing better than having ALL the family activities written on a calendar for all to see!
Each year, one of my most favorite projects is to create my STUDIO J 12x12 monthly calendars. I create three of them, one for myself, one for my parents and one for my in-laws. I actually work on them all year long in STUDIO J, which makes the job go a whole lot quicker at the end of the year :)
Here's how it's done:
First, I get these awesome 12x12 calendars from CTMH:
I stamp the name of the Month, then write in all the dates and finish it by adding some stamping that coordinates with the calendar page :)
Now for the Scrapbooked part..... I use STUDIO J!!!!! Why??? It allows me to create a layout ONCE, then print as many as I want! I could make 20 calendars (but I won't, haha).
Studio J makes 2-page layouts--- well, sure, it does. Here's what I do: 1) Use the same photos on both pages (3 on one page, 3 on the other page) and use them on 2 different calendars. OR 2) Create a 2-page layout and use one page on the calendar, and put the other in my album.
I do the 1st option most often!
Let me show you:
Option 1- use one on each calendar:
Same pictures used (+1), one on each calendar :) This was from last year's calendar
Option 2- One page for Calendar, One for album:
