MCT 3D Wednesday

It's 3D Wednesday with My Creative Time!! Admittedly, my favorite feature. :) Today's assignment was to recycle something as part of our project. I love doing mini books and 3D projects, as you probably already know. Today's project is a pocketbook calendar. I've used the My Creative Time large tag dies for my book, and for my recycle element I used cracker boxes to make my own chipboard book cover and numbers. 



Super simple to do - just cut the die shapes and adhere the calendar pages. Seriously simple! Each page leaves space on the opposite side for plenty of notes. 

Adorn the cover with the year and a few embellies if you like; I chose these sweet little hearts; hole punch and bind with ribbon. That's it! And so cute for a purse or backpack.

Product List:
My Creative Time, Tag Dies
My Creative Time, Stitched layering hearts dies
Quickutz, Diesel Classic alphabet dies
October Afternoon, Modern Homemaker 8x8 paper pad
Ribbon, mini calendar, cracker box
