DIY 2016 Calendar

HEYO 

For 2016 to start of fresh and nice I made my own DIY 2016 calendar :D

I'll explain the steps as clearly as possible XD 

This was just a first time trial inspired by a calendar I found in a TG Magazine in 2015.

Materials:

A3 paper (or scrap poster you don't need, thats what I used :)

3 or more coloured paper of your choice (mine: pink, blue, yellow)

black sharpie

Gel pens (from smiggle) 

Scrapbook paper of your choice (to cover the background 

Gems 

Glitter 

Something with a round base or use a compass to draw your own.

Glue, scissors, ruler, modpodge 

and some stickers to decorate :D 

Reference to a 2016 Calendar to right the correct dates.

This is my Finished Calendar :D 

This craft does take a lot of time, so be patient, especially because of creating 12 circles, measuring straight rows to right all the dates :/ ^_^ but I think its worth it seeing something beautiful all year round. 

My circle size was 9cm in diameter, if you were to draw your own Radius:4.5cm

Depending how big you want them, whether to overlap one another or not, I didn't want to cover too much as I wanted to doodle on each month. 

Background: just stuck scrapbooking paper and washi tape for the bottom and a blue coloured paper strip for the 2016 heading. 

You can print out the numbers or draw them yourself (as I did) in the colours you desire, I like to give my crafts a bit of bling and sparkle so I decided to throw in some gems and used modpodge applied with a brush to give a silver gradient on the bottom to separate from he blue below. 

I hope I explained clearly enough to assist you if you decide to make one :D
