Thanks you to
D&W and Robert for their pages of
daily supplies and tutorial. They worked hard.
I used their instructions and coding in making my calendars. I did pick my own graphics for the covers and special holidays and month titles in the next coming year and not theirs.
You can either print out my month or D&W's months. A link to each will be by each month. Enjoy both.

PRINTER

except print backgrounds.
You will need 7 sheets of the 11" X 17" paper folded
in half to make 8 1/2" X 11". Each sheet is assembled

staples from a store bought calendar and open it up
in the middle.

Choose one of my COVERS or one of your own pics resized to 670x540 and then rotated to the right. So the top of picture or heads of people are now to the right side of the screen. Resize & Rotate here. Print your cover.
Step #1b Allow ink to dry a minute or two and then fold the opposite way in half.
