I am on a mission to collect an ATC from every state in the U.S.! Would love to trade ATCs with anyone interested!

Add me to the Love Club for this project!  [swoons]  This is such a perfect thing for me... I love calendars for their organizational and informational functions, but am not enamored with the look of a floppy paper thing hanging on my wall somewhere, especially when the year is ending and it's getting worn-looking.

May I ask about the numbers and letters?  Are they stamps with fabric ink of some sort?  Did you stamp the dates before or after making the buttons?

Sure! I used a permanent ink pad to stamp the numbers after I had made the buttons. I did mess up a few times and had to take the buttons apart but I eventually got the hang of it.

I used fabric paint for stamping another project recently. It worked fine but it wasn't quite as crisp looking.

Also, after a few glue trials, I ended up using Gorilla glue to attach the velcro to the buttons. The other glues I tried pulled off too easily when moving them around the calendar.
