Thread: Challenge - Recycle those old calendars into envelopes

  1. Challenge - Recycle those old calendars into envelopes

    This was so easy to do if you have an envelope template. Take your old calendars and make them into envelopes.

    They come out so cute and I now have to use mine and not "hoard" them to myself!! LOL

    Come on, I know you can do it . Its fun!!!

    Ok, this is funny! I did this last week (when you orignally posted this topic) witht the girls Shrek and Tinkerbell calendars. I was able to make 4 before they saw what I was doing and didn't want their old calendars being used for envelopes. Funny. I was able to mail out the 4 I had! oops, guess I should've asked them first if I could use them. Bad MOM.

    I have saved mine but haven't done anything with them yet. Can you tell me is your calendar full size? I also would like the size you are using for yours. I'm sure difficult to day aren't I! LOL!!

    Tear open an old envelope for the size you need and trace accordingling, try to have the cute picture on the front. Does this help? - Nancy

    Ah-h thanks Sherri for this bringing up this great idea last week. I sent out an e-mail to my co-workers and recieved a stack of wall calendars needing recycling. I can't wait to get started.

    Christie I am with you. I can't get mine centered in the front either. Also when I tear the calendar it doesn't tear nice it is all jagged.

    I use the creat-a-lope template, I have the 6x6 size, and I trace around the template with a stylist and cut it on my paper trimmer, then I always have nice smooth edges.

    I saved my Betty Boop calendar to do this. I was wondering though about the postage area. Does it matter that it's got so much print on it?
