Important Dates Book

I was trying to think of something I could make for a Christmas gift for my grandparents and a close family friend.   The thought for an important date book crossed my mind and this is what I came up with.  As usual I waited until last minute so it is a little more plain than I would like but with the time crunch I didn't have time for a lot of embellishments.  I mostly used a child's year and designer calendar Cricut cartridges.  This was my first attempt at binding with my bind it all and it was easy and worked great.  To make it more durable I glued the covers to thick cardboard card stock and the calender pages have a thick white card stock in between them.  I think most of the background pages are from The Paper Studio All Seasons paper pack.  Hope you enjoy my first post, hopefully much more to come!  I also want you to be able to see the products I used  on my projects so I will provide links in case you are wondering what something is.   I use Amazon because you get info, pictures plus reviews on the products.
