Neat Idea! Recycled Stationery

<font color="neonpurple"><font size="1">I think this is such a neat idea. I usually don't throw out old calendars, I just save them until I find something to do with them. Now, I finally have something great to do with them! [img]images/smiley_icons/luxhello.gif[/img] [img]images/smiley_icons/luxhello.gif[/img]

<font color="limegreen"><font size="1">You Need:

Outdated Large Calendar

Kreate-a-Lope Envelope Maker***

Glue Stick

Nice Paper

Scissors

Computer

Instructions:



Cut apart the calendar at binding. Make sure to save the back of the calendar with the small photos. Use envelope maker*** to turn large pictures into envelopes. You will probably need to use it upside down to get the picture on the front of the envelope to face in the correct direction.



Design the writing paper on your computer. It should be a half sheet which measures 8-1/2&quot; x 5-1/2&quot;. Cut out the small picture that matches the envelope you just made. and paste it onto the writing paper.</font></font>



<font color="limegreen"><font size="1">***I would use an old envelope. Take it apart and open it up then trace a pattern. Cut it out from there. That is what I would do instead of buying something to make the envelope.</font></font>
