Simple Easel Calendar

Today I’m sharing a very simple easel calendar that is perfect for your desktop. It takes up little space and features the adorable Bee Mine Designer Series Paper. Of course, you can easily substitute your favorite paper and embellish it however you desire. The size is also perfect for mailing a fun surprise to a friend, as it will fit in our medium white envelopes.

Begin by cutting your cardstock base to 3-3/4″ x 10-1/2″. You’ll then score it at 1/2″, 1-1/2″, 2-1/2″, and 6-1/2″. Fold along the score lines with a bone folder. Adhere the 1/2″ flap to the other end with a strong adhesive such as Tear & Tape. Cut a Basic Black cardstock layer at 3-3/4″ x 3-1/2″ and a pattern paper layer at 3-1/2″ x 3-1/4″. Adhere to the easel base. Adhere the calendar to the easel with a strong adhesive.
