Project Life Calendar Project
The American Crafts Project Life Jade cards fit perfectly into the medium sized basket from the Gathering Eggs Wire Basket Set. I thought they would be a quick and easy (but still colorful and artistic) way to create a journal calendar, similar to the Daily Calendar Journal Project.
Using the Life Months and Life Shapes stencils and various colors of acrylic paint, stencil designs straight onto the larger Project life cards. On some of the smaller cards, stencil the months and then allow the pieces to dry.
Once all the cards are dry, use the month stencils (on the smaller cards) to create tabs for each month and staple them to the larger cards using the Tim Holtz Idea-ology Tiny Attacher.
*Creative idea: You can also staple additional pieces of ephemera to the cards. If you venture to the movies or travel during the year, staple the move ticket or a piece of ephemera from your vacation to the cards.
On the 12 monthly index cards, add any additional artistic elements as you like. I added a few stamped designs on various cards for an interesting mixed-media effect. At the end of the year, use you Journal cards and add them to a Project Life album, along with your favorite pictures.

Mail Forwarded by the Post Office
If you forward mail to your new address through the Post Office, it won't apply to periodicals/your magazine subscription unfortunately. Also, since mail forwarding only lasts for a short time-frame, we request that you still notify us of your address change to prevent any service interruption to your subscription.
Stampington & Company cannot be held responsible for replacing "lost" issues from your subscription, if we did not receive your change of address request at least two months prior to your next issue's release date.
Subscription issues should arrive within the first week of the month your publication is released. Please add up to two weeks for international delivery.
If your magazine has not arrived by the 20th of the month, please contact our customer service department, so we can check to make sure nothing is amiss with your subscription, and see if you're eligible for a replacement copy. International subscribers can receive a digital version of the magazine as a replacement if one attempt has already been made to deliver the print edition to you.
Stampington & Company cannot be held responsible for postal delays or circumstances outside of our control, but we will make every effort to make it right.
