Hi! I'm sharing a 2021 calendar book that I put together for Clique International. I converted a desktop calendar into a book with simple cardstock and washi tape binding. I embellished the cover with stars and stickers from my stash. You can purchase a printed Concord and 9th 2021 Desktop Calendar from the Clique Shop, or you can CLICK HERE to print a copy at home directly from the Concord and 9th website.
I used the Paper Inky Metropolis Paper Pack to decorate the top half of each month. The streets, neighborhoods, and map prints in this collection made great abstract designs when cut down to a smaller size. I cut the names of each month from the 6 month calendar cards and added them to each calendar on top of the patterned paper.
I used pieces of folded cardstock to secure two calendar pages together. Then, I adhered the two page sets together into a book. If you'd like to watch a great video tutorial on this technique, I used a similar process as the one Birgit Koopsen used HERE.
I used a piece of scrap muslin and double sided tape to add extra strength over the binding. After securing the front and back covers to the book, I covered the entire binding with washi tape for a seamless finish.
