As you may have discovered by now, I’m doing a four-part blog series on two perpetual calendars with Graphic 45 paper collections:

• Part 1: Place in Time: January – June
• Part 2: Time to Flourish: January – June
• Part 3: Place in Time: July – December
• Part 4: Time to Flourish: July – December – posted here

I’ve created two calendars at once because one, the Place in Time calendar, is for my mother, the other for myself.

Now that I’ve finished both, I must say that although the calendars have been based on a layered layout principle, they weren’t so alike as they may seem at first glance. Not only are both calendars different in size – Place in Time is 12×12, Time to Flourish is 8×8 – but the design and atmosphere of each collection are so uniquely their own that they felt like two completely different projects to work on.

And I can’t make up my mind which I like best! Except maybe for size: in hindsight, I liked to work with the 12×12 cutaparts more – mainly because all of their gorgeous pictures were larger, and therefore more fully enjoyed. 🙂

Well, without further ado here’s the video of the fourth and final part. And don’t forget to enjoy all of the beautiful pictures in the photo gallery below!
