DIY Calendar Blog Hop – January 2025

New year, new blog hop! I’m excited to join the DIY Calendar Blog Hop this year and show you some cute designs that I came up with for this mini easel calendar.

I always love using patterned paper and I wanted to feature some on this calendar! It always gives me inspiration for color and designs. This patterned paper and stamp set are from Stampin’ Up’s new 2025 Jan – Apr Mini Catalogue and will be available for purchase on January 7!

The cardstock mat for this calendar is 3 3/4″ x 3 3/4″ and the calendar itself is 3 1/8″ x 1 1/2″. I’m already having fun thinking of ideas for putting the rest of the year together in these dimensions!

This calendar template was made by Anne Matasci. She’s been putting out designs for this calendar for years, she has such great ideas. If you’d like to see her design for this month, along with Cheryl Hamilton’s and Sharon Hashimoto Burkert’s, click here or on the image below. If you’re interested in buying the template, message Anne here.

I hope you have a wonderful new year filled with exciting possibilities.

Happy crafting!

    That’s a fun way to start the year… with books! Nice idea to add the patterned paper to the background. Welcome to our blog hop!
