For a few years now I have been thinking about the best way to go about creating the ultimate collection of products to enable stampers to create their own customized calendars. I felt like it was most important to make the process quick and easy, because if you are anything like me, you start on a project like this and don't follow through to the end because there are TWELVE pages to complete after all!
Well, the thought process is finally complete with every detail executed perfectly, bringing you the Calendar Basics line of products.
It all starts with a stamp set. The Calendar Basics stamp set includes everything you need to customize our line of pre-printes calendar products (more about those in a moment). All twelve months are covered in not one, but two different fonts.
There are small design elements that can be used to accent the monthly headings, giving you many ways to customize the look of your calendar.
There are holiday icon images to designate which day a particular holiday falls on.
There are even elements that allow you to create a custom title for the cover of your calendar project.
The years 2011-2020 are covered so you will be able to get lots of use from this set for years to come.
There are sentiments that allow you to use the month titles in your everyday card making.
Myself along with the rest of the team will be showing you how all of these images work together to create calendars and more, but first the details.
The details.
- Calendar Basics stamp set will be available for purchase on September 15th.
- It will retail for $24.
- Calendar Basics stamp set includes a total of 62 stamps (12 month titles in a block font, 12 month titles in a script font, 10 yearly titles (2011-2020), 8 complementary design elements, 9 holiday/event icons, 6 cover title elements and 5 sentiments)
Now I am assuming that many of you may be like me and have shied away from calendar projects in the past because of how labor intensive they tend to be. Well, that was the old way of creating calendars. With our pre-printed calendar pages and the help of an amazing die, you can complete an entire calendar in half the time.
First, let me show you the two different types of calendars we will be offering on the 15th.
Our pre-printed 2011 Mini Calendar is the quickest way to put together a project. The pages measure 2.5" square and they are printed on white patterned paper weight paper. They are designed this size to specifically coordinate with our new Calendar Page Die (more about that below). The "days of the week" are printed in a light gray across the top of the page, while the numbers are printed in black.
I designed the pages so there is the perfect amount of space at the top to add your own month title, allowing you to keep everything color coordinated within your project. To help this project be time efficient, I added a code in the lower right corner of each page that let's you know what month the page is for. For example, the January page has the code "PTI JAN2011". These pages make it SO quick and easy to put together your own project in a matter of minutes, but still give you the flexibility of customization.
The details.
- The 2011 Mini Calendar will be available for purchase September 15th.
- They will retail for $2 each.
- Each 2011 Mini Calendar contains all twelve months, each page measuring 2.5" square.
- They are printed on quality white 80lb. paper (the same paper we use for our patterned paper).
- The 2011 Mini Calendar coordinates with the Calendar Page Die, available separately.
Now a bit more about the aforementioned Calendar Page Die. This die measures about 5-1/4" x 6-1/2", creating pages that will fit perfectly in our Calendar Cases. The small tabs will hold the 2011 Mini Calendar pages perfectly in place and add an extra design element that eliminates the need to do any matting or layering. This helps to keep the pages thin so that they can all fit in the Calendar Case.
I love the concept of this die because all you need to do is stamp a pattern or image directly onto the cardstock, slip in the mini calendar page and you're done! Quick, easy and FUN!!!!!
The details.
- The Calendar Page Die will be available for purchase on September 15th.
- It will retail for $16.
- The Calendar Page Die measures about 5.25" x 6.5" and the pages it creates fit perfectly in our Calendar Cases.
- The 2011 Mini Calendar pages can be inserted underneath the tabs for calendar creating efficiency.
- Any 2.5" block can be inserted behind the tabs for use in both card making and scrapbooking. Think of the amazing, quick & easy mini book possibilities!
For those of you who enjoy making larger scaled calendars that allow you space to write notes and reminders each day, our 2011 Large Calendar is just what you need. These loose, unbound calendar pages measure 8.5" x 11" and are printed on heavyweight 120lb white cardstock. This is an even HEAVIER weight than our Stamper's Select White cardstock!
The 2011 Large Calendar pages allow you plenty of room at the top to add photos or stamp images directly to the page. You can add just the month or finish it off with flourishes or other embellishments from the Calendar Basics stamp set. Stamp images can be tucked into different date blocks to note birthdays, anniversaries and holidays. The 2011 Large Calendar pages also feature the same month coding as the mini calendar in the lower right hand corner, making it easy to keep track of what month which page is for.
The details.
- The 2011 Large Calendar will be available for purchase September 15th.
- They will retail for $7 each.
- Each 2011 Large Calendar contains all twelve months, each page measuring 8.5" x 11".
- They are printed on quality white 120lb. cardstock (this is a heavier weight than our Stamper's Select White Cardstock!)
Now, if I haven't tempted you enough already, let me tell you all about a THIRD way you can utilize the Calendar Basics stamp set!
Are you familiar with the concept of a birthday calendar? The premise behind a birthday calendar is that you have a permanent page for each month with a listing of the birthdays you want to remember each year. You use the same calendar every year, so it is an amazing organizational tool and/or gift.
The concept I came up with allows you to easily store a few cards along with each month and house it all together in a sturdy, long-lasting binder. Plus you can put your effort into making a really cute cover for the binder rather than each individual page since the work is practically done for you.
The Birthday Calendar Pages arrive flat and scored just to the right of the list portion of the page as well as three hole punched for the binder. There is space at the top of the list for you to add the month with the Calendar Basics stamp set. The idea is for you to fold the list flap over and adhere just the top and bottom with Scor-tape and create a pocket for cards each month.
The details.
- Birthday Calendar Page sets will be available for purchase September 15th.
- They will retail for $7 each.
- Each Birthday Calendar Page set contains twelve pages (for twelve months), each page measuring 8" x 10.25".
- They are printed on our Stamper's Select White Cardstock.
- Birthday Calendar Page sets coordinate with our Kraft Binder, which will be available for purchase separately (more information below).
We are also selling the three ring binder to store the Birthday Calendar Pages in. It is similar to the binder we currently sell to house the Color Couture line of products, minus the logo printed on the cover.
The details.
- The Kraft Binder will be available for purchase September 15th.
- They will retail for $8 each.
- The Kraft Binder is a three ring binder that measures 7.25" wide and 9" tall.
So, are you as excited as I am about ALL these amazing goodies! Let me show you what myself and the rest of the team has created with this incredible product line!
I thought I would start out today's post with one of the customized Birthday Books that you can create with these products.
I embellished the cover of the Kraft Binder with a strip of Ocean Tides cardstock stamped with Turning a New done in Fresh Snow Ink. The title is die-cut using the Mat Stack 4 die from Stamper's Select White cardstock. All of the elements within the title are images from the Calendar Basics stamp sets, allowing you to customize your project inside & out.
The companion stamp set also has elements to decorate the spine of your birthday book. I discovered that the Tea for Two label die works nicely with this image.
Now, a bit more about those Birthday Calendar pages I was telling you about earlier. They come pre-punched and scored, ready to fold into the pocket pages.
All you need to do is add a few pieces of Scor-tape at teh top and bottom…
and when you fold it over, it becomes a pocket to hold cards for each month.
As I mentioned earlier, there are stamp titles for each month. Here I stamped it in Spring Moss and then added one of the small flourishes from the set in Ocean Tides. I love how I can easily carry over my color scheme from the cover to the interior pages this way.
There is a small "HB" (Happy Birthday) and "AN" (Anniversary) to be used to mark which days have a birthday or anniversary associated with them. You can then fill in the appropriate name next to each date.
Once all of the pages are complete, they tuck beautifully inside the binder together.
Not only would this make a wonderful gift for someone, full of birthday cards, it would be a great way to treat yourself since you ARE after all a card maker!
Now, how about a project using the mini calendar? I started by die-cutting 12 Calender Pages with the Calendar Page Die, using 12 different colors.
I matched up a color with each month and then stamped the month titles in the coordinating color. For February I used Melon Berry.
I decided to stamp all of my pages with Friends 'Til the End using Fresh Snow ink. After doing so, I was able to go through and insert the mini calendar pages with each appropriate color. All twelve pages tuck nicely into the calendar case.
To finish the project, I created a wrap around cover for the calendar. There is a special stamp in the set that is specifically designed to be used on calendar case spines. Here it is, customized with the year "2011". As I mentioned earlier, the years 2011-2020 are included so you will get nearly a decade of use from the set.
I punched out 3/4" squares from the scraps leftover from die-cutting the calendar pages and stamped each one with Friends 'Til the End, then arranges them in an eye appealing color-block pattern on the cover. I lovethe way this turned out!
The finished case looks professional & polished! It's little details like the cover of this calendar, that really take a project to the next level!

I am totally game for making birthday calendars as gifts to give to others. That would be a fun gift for Christmas when everyone is in “gift mode.”
Pam S says
This is one of the best ideas ever!!! I tried making a calendar last year to give away as a gift, but gave up because it was just too time consuming. This set + die are on the top of my wishlist! Thanks so much for designing it!!
Sandra K says
Wow. A lot of thought has gone into make this a very user friendly product. Looks great.
Tabby says
Fantastic! Again!
Cindy Holshouser says
This is such a great idea. The only calendar I made was your ‘baby’s first year’ calendar which I printed out and assembled. These stamps, dies, and calendar pages will make the process easier. The birthday book would make a great gift, filled with handmade PTI cards of course:)
Katie Renz says
What an ensemble… so many details.
Wahinelei says
I am waaayyyy impressed with all the design elements of the calendar basic set! As I was scrolling down your post I kept being more and more amazed at all the products you’ve thought of for this set. I have made hybrid digital calendar sets before that I printed out and slid into CD cases but yours looks way MORE polished than mine ever did! I want to get started on making a birthday calendar for me and then start decorating that kraft binder!!!
Cindy Vernon says
This may be my favorite of the releases so far ! So many gift ideas!
Jennifer L. says
Good idea! I have never done calendars because those 12 pages seem like too much work! Or you have to generate the calendar (days and dates) for each month, which is way too much work. Looks like these products will definitely streamline the process! Thanks for the chance to win.
shannon Roberts says
Seriously? Genius!!!!!!

The more I read about the calendars, the more excited I get. I make a calendar for my sister every year for her birthday and it’s so appropriate since her birthday is Dec. 31. I always look online for the perfect basic calendar to stamp and embellish. I think the Basic Mini Calendar is perfect. And the die is genious.

Nicole F, UK says
Wow – awesome! I had to smile to myself when you said it can be difficult to follow through to the end on a project like this. I can so relate to this as I have both an unfinished birthday book and a calendar for 2010 (LOL!). However in typical PTI style you have made the process quick and easy, but oh so stylish and striking. I am just itching to get started on using all the elements of this fantastic set!
Rema Timm says
This will truly be one of PTI’s best sellers. I’m sold! What a fabulous idea and a great gift to make for anyone……

Be(e) says
Great idea!!! Love the different possibilities!!
Renee S. says
Organized and beautiful! Another terrific set and a fabulous gift idea.
Susy says
Gorgeous, what a great idea.

Nichole, in this fabulous collection, you’ve given us the “ingredients” we need to finally be able to truly customize our calendars! And, as usual, it doesn’t stop there! This collection allows us to create an unlimited variety of projects! I am all smiles! 🙂
Allison B says
I absolutely love this! These all look so professional! Love the birthday book especially – with all the cards I give it would be so handy to keep me on track!

Wow! What a fantastic line of calendar products. My husband and I have made a calendar once before (on the computer). We had it printed at a copy store. It was nice but it had it’s draw backs.
I love how you really can do anything with these calendars – small, large, everything! I couldn’t believe how professional that calendar case looks!
Danielle greenwood says
What beautiful and clever set. I love every singlet project the design team has come up with. They truly are the best nm

Sandra
Dee in N.H. says
How awesome! I love making calendars for gifts and they are soooo time consuming. This is just amazing and I’ll be able to do them just as nicely but in much less time. Wonderful!
cha says
I’m kinda confused – I’m assuming you just place one month in the slot, but if I buy those “already printed mini calendars that are gummed” will it hold the 12 months? What kind of paper is the mini printed on. I love the concept and I’m going to be broke this month for sure!
Robin says
My family and friends think my projects are amazing but we all know Papertrey products make it easy for me to look like I know what I’m doing.
Can’t wait until they see the calendars they’re getting for Christmas…
elana says
I’m amazed at just how much thought you put into each stamp set you design. I especially love the birthday book project and see myself making several as Christmas gifts this year.
Karin Fidler says
Jaw dropping AMAZING – as always!

Ginny Schleich says
I just finished making a 2010 calendar kit this past weekend and it was so labor intensive-must be why we are over half way through 2010 and I just made the calendar. All of the calendar products you introduced today are certainly going to make beautiful calendars super simple to complete. And that birthday book would make the perfect gift for many on my X-mas list. I’ll also have to make one for myself. Fantastic products!

Now I can create them with your mini-calendar products! Hooray! The large calendar and birthday calendar products are great too!
Hester says
This is a gorgeous way to create christmas gifts!

The calendar set is great. Yes I made calendars one year for gifts for co-workers. There were way too many steps, but this looks like it is very streamlined, and with the use of dies and precut calendars. The fun is back in the calendar! Way to go.
Susie says
This is wonderful !! I’ve tried to make calendars in the past only to end up with a big mess and wasted cardstock… but YES, this makes me want to jump in with both feet and try again! I think this time the results will be much different. And the Kraft binder is an added bonus… love it !!!

Can’t wait to get started!!!!!
Cyndie says
Wow, how cool is that! Looks like you have thought of everything! Can’t wait to see the full set!
Renee says
Nicole! Spot on with the calendar’s! I make them every year for the family (7 in total!) and being that this is the 5th year that I’m going to be making them, I’ve started taking more and more short cuts, to eliminate the 45+ hours it takes me to make them. This is surely to cut the amount of time I spend working on calendars and not getting enough sleep. THANK YOU!
stampyblock says
WOW! I have not done much with calendars in the past I thought that I would for sure mess something and have to start all over. This will totally streamline the process, I am totally going to call my mom this morning and let her know that I can now help her with that calendar that she was going to have printed at the office supply store for my dad for Christmas. And for me, I am so excited to make a birthday calendar and hopefully be organized for 2011 bdays. Maybe in 2011 I will be able to send less belated birthday cards with this! Cross my fingers!
Mindy says
I’m not even kidding when I say I woke up this morning thinking…”I hope Nichole showcases the calendar set today…” I am so excited! This is exactly what I have been wanting for forever!!! 🙂

Sue Devowe says
Love this! Great idea for stocking-stuffer gifts.
Margaret Peltier says
WOW!! Wonderful projects – love the die cut and the binder Birthday book – seems like alot less work using these tools – I have made birthday calender booklets but not in binders – although everyone loved them – they
would hae been much nicer if they were int he binders so I could have added some cards to go along with each month!! Just fabulous!!!!
Sandy Thelen says
This is fantastic! I’ve always loved the ideas of making personalized calendars, but was itimidated by the mount of time they would take. Thanks for once again making things simple!

Great concepts Nichole, and you have definitely taken a lot of the work out of calendar projects! I’ve made birthday calendars before, but they were somewhat tedious. I’m loving the pre-printed pages, and the fonts you’ve used for the stamp set are gorgeous! Thank you.
Aurora Dawn says
This is my favourite release of the year! I can’t wait to place my order, it means getting up at stupid o’clock Wednesday morning, but I’m there :O)

What an absolute treasure this whole set is going to be! Nichole, as usual, you have thought of every little detail. Thanks for making this hobby so much fun. I really love the little calendar case project. I really wish this calendar would be available in PDF format…all that extra paper and cardstock (calendars) makes for very expensive shipping fees for us international customers.

Quick question-will the tabbed space on the calendar die hold a gift card? If so, then I am truly in heaven because I am always looking for new ways to present gift cards in card format!

I think this calendar set of products just took care of a large portion of my Christmas list. I love the versatility and I can’t believe we get 62 stamps for $24. What a fabulous value.

peggysue says
Very cool, what a great idea to have those calendar options!
Kelly says
This is absolutely amazing! My order is going to be a big one this month.
Love it!!!
winjes says
Nichol, you have totally out done yourself with this calendar set. I’ve thought of making calendars every year, but when I get started, I get sooo overwhelmed and I finally give up. This makes it look so doable, and can be endlessly customized. I can’t wait to finally make calendars.
Tanya Caudill says
Gorgeous projects, this looks so easy and so much fun! Thanks for all the thought you put into everything!

Lori H says
All I can say is “WOW!!!” This set & accompanying items is just amazing. It appears that every detail has been covered. I like to make calendars for teacher gifts, but hate that they take up so much time. I can’t wait to order these items, as I know it will be so much more fun to make calendars this year. And I am due for a new birthday book, too. I knew this was going to be a must-have when we saw the peaks.
Gaylyn says
I love that the “calendar” part is done, leaving just the fun stamping to customize them! I have started and never finished calendars before-but I am sure this entire grouping will cover all of my needs.
The die is also so versatile, I can think of many uses for that.
The birthday calendars will be great gifts for All of my stamping friends. Now all I have to do is find that list of birthdays…..
I think I’m going to need all of these!!
Ted says
Wow, the DT has really outdone themselves!!
Chris H. says
I had been playing with the idea of combining the year of flowers into a calendar of sorts… you have just multiplied the ways to use these sets. I’m in love.
itsterry says
Nicole you have created the perfect calendar set. LOVE the minis for friends and co-workers. LOVE the large size for myself and family.

Thanks for releasing it this month so I have plenty of time to put my projects together for Christmas!
Chelle (hanwayink) says
the birthday calendar is AMAZING! just wow.

Lauren says
Absolutely GENIUS!! What a well-thought out concept! This will make it SO easy to create beautiful projects and gifts. Love it!!!
Laura S says
I am so thinking of all the gifts I can make with this set. Birthday calenders for family members and desk calenders for coworkers will be the first. What a fabulous set.

Amazing!! This is a fabulous concept and the results are stunning! Thanks for offering the great prize.
KellyB says
Thank you for determining what gifts I am going to make for the holidays this year! I have always thought a Birthday Calendar is a great idea, but have never tackled the project. Now it will be a breeze with these wonderfully designed calendar pages and to have the ability to include handmade cards is perfect. I’m also loving the mini calendar pages and hope to make several of these for gifts this holiday season as well. PTI never ceases to amaze me with great products every month.
Becky C says
Wow, amazing!! I’m totally thinking Christmas gifts!
Lisa says
I can’t believe I bought a competitors calendar stamp a few weeks ago because I really have so many ideas swirling in my head of projects and gifts I NEEDED a calendar stamp set for. Of course I don’t like the quality of the competitors stamp set and was ready to give up on my ideas and then YEAH-PTI comes through! Can’t wait to use these great stamps! And I loved all of your showcase projects!
Lisa S. says
This wonderful set has just solved my -Teacher/Neighbor/Family – (I could go on and on) gift dilema this Christmas Season. Thank you for such a versatile, beautiful, fun way to make terrific gifts. I can’t wait to get my set to start all sorts of creative calendar making.
liza friesen says

Sandra B. says
I love this idea! I’ve definitely shied away from making calendars for gifts because of the time involved. I think it’s great that you’ve made it easy for us to make these but also make them customized. I love the die and how it holds the mini calendar pages. I will definitely have to try making the birthday calendar too. Such a great idea for organizing birthdays!
Jen G. says
Nichole, you and the DT never cease to amaze me with the gorgeous stuff you create!
Angela says
I made the mistake of reading this post in the middle of the night, and then I couldn’t go back to sleep because my mind kept thinking of all the possibilities. This product is absolutely incredible, very affordable, and quite adorable. That mini calendar is the perfect holiday gift for teachers, neighbors, grandparents…oh the things we can do with this. Thank you!
Sarah H. says
Ohhh, these calendars sets are a great idea!! I have not tried putting together a calendar because it always looked too time and labor intensive. I really, really need to make a birthday calendar with pockets so I don’t accidently give my mom and sister the same (mass produced) birthday card. These sets, dies and preprinted sheets would definitely help me avoid that faux pas!!
betty lou says
As a calendar-loving freak…known to have calendars in most rooms of my house…I LOVE this idea! So much inspiration from the team! Thanks for the chance to win such a WONDERFUL package!

Victoria Nelson says
Awesome! I have been making calendars for over 10 years now, and they are VERY labor-intensive! I love the options you’ve developed to create beautiful, handmade calendars.

Amy H says
This is a fantastic set, so well thought out!
Myrna Holstrom says
Such talent – I am so impressed with what each of the Design Team Members created – love the birthday book the Maile did – it is so striking, and Betsy’s flip calendar is incredible. Love the verstility of these products! Now I just have to sit down and decide how much I need to order, this gets my gift-giving juices flowing. Way to got PTI!!!
Peg C. says
I am speechlesss! What a awesome set! My head is spinning with ideas.
Kimberly S says
I’m pretty tied into my e-calendar, so I wasn’t too excited about this set, but the birthday calendar is brilliant. Ever since you and the DT did posts showing how you organized your birthday calendars/addresses last year, I’ve wanted to do one. But I couldn’t decide on a scheme and the amount of work was a little daunting. With this set, you’ve made it so easy, and I’m looking forward to actually sending birthday cards on time now!
Jan L. says
Wow, this is amazing. So many different creative ideas all from the same supplies. Can hardly wait to start making some gifts

Oh My Goodness! Ya’ll have thought of everything! I am so excited about getting the stamps to make the CD case calendars! My kids teachers would LOVE them! Thanks for making AMAZING stamps! 🙂
MaryBB says
I think that I have “died” and gone to heaven. I make calendars as gifts and this is going to make them not only easier to complete but WAY, WAY more fantastic. Even my husband has hinted that he would love a handmade calendar. Now I know that he’ll be getting one for Christmas (or hmmm maybe even his birthday).
Marie L says
You have thought of everything. This is amazing and so versatile…absolutely magnificent

Wanda says
Wow I have been looking for a mini calendar…and now all the great other possiblities…Amazing
Stephanie says
I really love the idea of making calendars for Christmas this year. I don’t normally make gifts for people, but I think it will be fun this year to show people the various AMAZING PTI stamps through a homemade calendar!!! I love that the grid is pre-printed so that I don’t have to worry about stamping the grid and the individual numbers. Thanks so much!
Barbara DeBose says
I am totally LOVING this entire concept!!I have always wanted to make my family the birthday calendar and now I don’t have an excuse. You are making my holiday gift giving so easy!

Toni Storie says
Wow, this totally looks like it would streamline the process of calendar making. I have never tried as it just seems like so much to tackle!
Ronna E. says
Such an amazing introduction of product! It has all the attention to detail that I always expect from PTI and this one is just perfection. I can’t wait to create great calendars with all these tools.

I’ve never made mini calendars before because, yes, I thought they were too much work. Now, I’m inspired. I can do it with these wonderful products and all of the examples from the PTI team.
Rosemary D says
wow! what a really cool concept! could definitely think of several projects i could make!
Caren B says
Awesome set! Love the birthday calendar.
Theresa Tyree says
I’ve never wanted to win a set more than this one. I love calendar projects and have so many different calendar stamp sets. Now I can get rid of all the other sets I own and go with just this one. I’m happy to be able to make room in my scraproom now for more PTI!!!
Sammie says
I love this! I’m imagining a planner, bound with my bind-it-all!
Jill H says
I love all the calendars. That die is such a great idea!
Diane Jaquay says
I “thought” I wouldn’t need this set. Nope, not me. I’m not a calendar maker. But once again you and the DT have proven me WRONG lol! First of all, there are stamps in the calendar set that I NEED, even if I wasn’t going to make a single calendar (like the beautiful polka dot corners and the sentiments). The project that blew me away was Maile’s! This would make such a stunning Christmas gift for my mom and sisters and friends! I just LOVE the birthday calendar concept and cannot wait to get started making these!
Giovana says
WOW!! This is amazing! I am speechless. LOVE IT!!
Jess Kruegel says
wow, what an amazing product line!! I LOVE it!! I have only made ONE calendar, and was frustrated after completing it, and thought never again. NOW, you have completely simplified the process. Thank you so much!!! This will be at the top of my wish list!

I Am SO VERY excited for this set! I make about 10 calendars per yr for Christmas Gifts. I usually make 6×12 size or smaller – so I am excited to see the 8.5×11 as a new option for me. this will cut my time down and I can make even more! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!
Linda says
This was the peek that I was most excited about! It certainly does not dissapoint! This will definately be included with my order. The only thing I hate about this release? My darn budget!

This is an amazing idea that I know I will turn to time and time again for those perfect gifts! Thanks so much Nichole!

JeanFB says
Ooooh, I am so excited about this series of products!! I absolutely love the small square calendar on the die cut pages, and the stamps look amazing. I also adore the idea of the calendar in the binder with pockets for cards – how perfect is that?!?!? I made a few birthday calendars several years ago and vowed “never again”…. until now! I love all the thought that was put into these sets. Thanks so much for coming up with this. 🙂
Janis says
Once again, you’ve thought of everything! I think the best part of Papertrey is that there is “no stone left unturned”. You really think things through before releasing a product. This is a perfect example of the thoughtfulness that goes into the design. Kudos to you!
Barb S says
Yep, I’ve done the same thing in the past – started making a calendar set then getting swamped by how much work it was. Your calendar set will make it REALLY easy to finish the job. I am so inspired by all the examples 🙂
Stephanie S. says
OH MY GOSH!!! Can I say it again??? I love this set and love to be organized. What a fun idea and the girls did a great job with your samples. Pick me!!!! LOL
Tracey McNeely says
Such a timely idea. I see so many possibilities with this set and the calendar die and pages. In the future I see an add-on set to recreate fabulous calendar circle die cuts for any time of the year.
Gail says
Wow! Nichole what an amazing idea! I know what I am making all of my friends and family members for the holidays–CALENDARS! I think your concept definitely makes calendar creating much easier. I LOVE the idea of the birthday binder-I have been on the lookout in card shops for something like this and haven’t been able to find one I liked. I love that I can use my stamps to customize a binder just for me!What a fun project-can’t wait for the release!
kristyn says
Wow! this is huge. You have really outdid yourself. All the details included to create such extraordinary gifts, cards and projects. I think there is something here for everyone. My personal favorite is the ongoing birthday binder. Great gift idea.
Excellent!!!
Annamaria Miller says
AMAZING, AMAZING, AMAZING. I love making and giving calendars as gifts. This set is perfect for saving time. So many details went into its creation. A must for me. As always you continue to inspire. Thank you.
KathyFL says
What a GREAT gift idea. I have never been one to “do” calendars but this group of tools has pushed me over to the “calendar side” of things. I cannot wait to get them and start
Katherine Bolinger says
looks like you’ve thought of everything.
lori says
I didn’t think I wanted this set. Never really been one to want to make calendars….but I may have to just change my mind!! I love everything about this. The DT is amazing thats all I can say!!
BethieJ says
I LOVE IT!! and just when I was thinking Oh I dont need to make calenders… I was WRONG!! hee hee! What GREAT gifts.. (for me and family and friends!) More to add to the list!! 🙂

Sue Symens says
Not that you didn’t know already but…your girls are the best! Great set. I can’t wait to play with it and make up some gifts.
Sue in Grapevine says
I’ve made calendars in the past, but always by spending a lot of time getting things lined up on the computer. This set will allow people to spend their time on the creative parts of calendar making since the utilitarian part is taken care of.
Angela says
That’s a cute idea for the calendar set. I like how the actual calendar is pre-printed but you can embellish it any way you like. The birthday calendar sheets are a great idea too.
BarbaraAx says
The calendar sets are amazing. I imediately starting thinking about who I should make them for this Christmas!
Linda M. says
WOW! Amazing! I know what I’ll be making for Christmas gifts. Thanks again.

This is a Calendar Maker’s Must Have. Love It!

Suzie says
A few years ago I made calendars for all my friends and family for Xmas gifts – wowzers! Swore I’d never do THAT again… should have known better when we’re “dealing” with the creative geniuses at PTI!!!!! Now I’m actually looking FORWARD to making more calendars this year!!!! WOOHOO! I’m so excited!!!!
Kathy McDonald says
Nichole, you’ve thought of EVERYTHING with this calendar set. It is perfect in every way. And the binder set-up makes it so easy to stay ahead of the birthdays for which I need/want to send a card. It’s PERFECT!
Sandi says
What a perfect gift idea–if I could talk myself into giving it away! These calendar sets are truely wonderful.
Sue M. says
This is brilliant. I have started calendars before, but have never finished them. They seemed to get too involved and just took too long to create. I think I would have an easy time creating calendars using your templates. I’m already thinking Christmas presents!
Marla J says
This is an incredible idea, and totally beyond anything that any other stamp company has offered. Love the limitless range of possibilities for creativity with this concept. All the designers have done a beautiful job showcasing the different ways you can express your style by making your own calendars. Love it!!!
Kay Norman says
Love it! This is a must have for me – can’t wait to get my hands on these!
Cheri Mosgrove says
Oh goodness! You really do think of EVERYTHING to go along with a stamp set! That just makes it so much easier. . . and all for such a great price! Thank you!
Robyn W. says
This is amazing! So creative and so needed! I love everything! The die is fabulous, the fonts for the stamps look just perfect, your book and mini calendar are so inspiring and just beautiful!! Gotta have!! Thanks for creating this and making this available! So wonderful! 🙂
Stephanie says
amazing!! My mother in law always asks for a calendar with everyone’s birthday & this would be a perfect way to make that for her 🙂
KelliJo says
I have made a card holder/calendar/birthday book all in one and it was a forced to finish since I was in a class…of course what a wonderful idea so I bought a second kit… guess what… it’s STILL in KIT FORM!!! LOL
I see this as a SUPERB way to actually get it done with a couple cranks on the ole CB and some beautiful stamps… **sigh** I am EXCITED to get my hands on this and get a lil inky!!!!! 🙂
Thanks SO much Michele, this release has me drooling and I am BACK TO PTI!!!! 🙂
Linda says
Wow! I surely didn’t think I needed a calendar stamp set. But..no, you did it to me again! I gotta have it. What fun it will be to create calendars as gifts.
KellieC says
I can’t believe how pretty Stamping and Scrapping make me feel. This set has literally brought tears to my eyes to think that I could make something so totally beautiful so easy makes ME FEEL beautiful inside. I can’t wait to create with this set!
Thanks, PTI team for bringing such beauty to each of us!
KellieC
Denise says

Angie DiMeglio says
WOW what a great idea Nicole — I do calendars every year for birthdays presents and Christmas presents — this year I will be doing this one!!
Sue McRae says
The PTI team is always so creative! Love the calendar ideas!
Lori M says
I am SO excited Nichole!! I have made calendars every year for the last few years and the large calendar paper alone will save me a TON of time *insert green smiley*!!!
Thank you SO much!!!
Lorus says
This is going to be fabulous for Christmas gifts. I especially love the birthday calendar and binder!
Ally V. says
Oh-My-Gosh!! I love everything!!! I want it all!! How cute are the mini calendars? And the birthday books…..perfect!!
Pam says
WOW! All the ladies did a bang up job in personalizing their style into the Calendar projects. I make the mini size each year because they fit into the CD cases so this is right up my alley. Nicole, I agree with you, calendars need to be very easy or you won’t even want to start one. Your supplies will make it very easy for the first timer to jump in.
Eleanor says
You have thought of everything with this set, Nichole! Truly amazing!
Ginny A. says
Wow, this set looks easy to use and simply amazing!!
Marcia Truslow says
I do make 4″ x 6″ calendars and birthday books every year for a few people and I know how much time I spend working on those. So – the new calendars and birthday books are are glorious to behold, PTI style! You simplify our lives so elegantly! I love that! Can’t wait to switch over to this new system!
Rita says
Finally…the perfect set of products to make quick and easy calendars in a variety of ways…all customized with a professional look. Nichole, I love the way you think. And I love the talented team of women on your design team. Every single sample shows how many possibilities are available by using the stamps, die, and printed pages. Brava…calendar girls!
Dia says
Amazing! I can’t wait until it’s available
Mary says
I love the calender stamps and already numbered monthly pages, I had given up on making calenders because it was a nightmare to stamp each month with day stamps. Thanks for another great idea!
Linda E says
This set is pure genius, Nichole! Hand-stamped calendars make perfect gifts and PTI has taken all of the guess work out of creating one. All of the designers made beuatiful samples that have certainly inspired me to create!
Kari Linder says
Oh my goodness this is a genious idea! Love it! Would love to make one for myself but also for gifts!!!
Anna says
Nichole, this is AMAZING! I stayed up until past midnight last night to see this post, and I’ve been back to visit 3 times since I got up this morning. I can’t focus at work, this is just the most exciting post EVER. Thank you!!
Michelle says
Oh mi goodness… This is something I’ve always wanted to do yet Nichole is bang-on in theory – it is too cumbersome to create. But now with these new products launching; all of them have landed on my wish list!
Jamie N says
Wow…it never fails. I just love the way you guys are able to take a huge project and create the tools to make it alot easier yet absolutely ah-mazing.
Kathy Archer says
I’m exhausted thinking of making all of the fun ideas you and the DT have come up with. I think if I work 20 hrs a day for from now til 12/24 I might get it all done.
k.,m. says
The Calendar Basics set is a winner…..I believe this set will work beautifully in creating calendars.
Barbara V says
What an amazing, innnovative idea! Great way to produce beautiful calendars.
Tracy Y says
What perfect timing you have! I was planning on creating calendars for my knitting group which contains a different knitted washcloth pattern each month. Thank you for helping make my idea easier to complete. I am soooo excited for the 15th to get here!!!
Shirley K. says
I love the desk calendar die and coordinating mini calendars! I always see cute little sets on sale, but they are expensive. This is a relatively cheap and fun option.
Debbie Olson says
oh i love making calendars as gifts and this will make it so much funner Just what i have been searching for. Thanks so much.
Won~der~ful!!!!
Mendi M. says
I’m in love! I always have great intentions to make calendars for gifts, but like you’ve said, it is a daunting task! I look forward to using these products!
carol h says
Love your ideas for the calendar but I really liked the birthday book. How clever. Great job.
Debbie says
Love it all, what wonderful ideas!
Carol says
Such a fantastic idea. I particularly love the idea of using the sets for mini books too.
Monica L says
WOW!! So much offered in this “little” set. What a great idea to create your own calendars, I love the concept and the execution!
Melissa C says
Great gift ideas. I really love the Kraft binder and the birthday calendar idea.
Jessica ML says
Amazing, this release just keeps on bringing on the hits! The calendar idea is great and you and the design team inspire me as usual.
Terry (aka flipfloplady) says
I see great gifts with the Calendar set.
Can’t wait to place my HUGE order.
Michelle Early says
That is an amazingly thought out calendar making system! Kudos to you for making such a versatile and beautiful easy calendar! I love all the options and can imagine making these as gifts. I’d love to have every size – what fun!
Pam Franklin says
I can tell that a great deal of thought went into designing this calendar set. I am very impressed, as usual.:) Pam F
ElizabethB says
I am loving everything about this calendar concept. I am a calendar junkie and love giving them as gifts. It has been a struggle to duplicate them for gift giving and expensive. Your new design has taken care of all that. Thank you.
Janet B says
Wow–I totally love the idea of this set. It would be a great gift for my mom and her friends.
Cheryl I. says
I have never made a calendar due to the work involved. Your set and coordinating products makes me want to start making them immediately. They are so professional and yet easy to put together. You have once again, thought of it all!
jpgoldmd@aol.com says
I have to tell you that I am totally shocked by this set. I didn’t think I would need a calendar set during the sneak peaks but you have changed my mind. I do wish there was some way to attach all the die cut sheets to one another like a typical wall calendar. I’m sure I will find a way to connect them! Your projects with this set are just stunning.
Stacy Simpson says
I cannot wait to create a birthday calendar book. The idea of having a place to tuck cards with the birthdates sounds like organizational bliss! Thanks!
Terry says
When I asked you about the possibility of a calendar stamp set a couple years ago, I had no idea it would be this incredible! This knocks other calendar stamp sets out of the park. This month’s release is going to be painful for the pocketbook…but oh so much fun!
