Putting your calendar together:
On a 12 by 12 piece of Very Vanilla card stock, lay out all your pieces like you would on a scrapbook page.
After you are satisfied with the placement, adhere one row at a time - one row up and one row down. If you are planning on putting it in a frame don't forget to take into account the overlap of the frame onto the card stock.
With a pencil, make light marks where each piece is to go before you remove it from the card stock.
This is the easy and fun part.
Good luck and happy Adventing!!
