2015 Calendars
Ok I know it's super early....but can we all start thinking about 2015 Calendars. I try to make my grandparents a new calendar every year but I like to get an early start on them lol.
Any plans or ideas when we may start to see them hit the store?

I need the pre made 5x7. Those were a hit last year! I think it might have been a collab between Cindy and KCB? I just dropped my photos in there and instantly done! Love them!

I groaned when I saw this...I always do calendars. The thought makes me groan, but maybe this year I'll just pop my pics in to some cute quick pages and be done. I usually try to use pages I made throughout the year and then just make a few using the calendar templates. However, I've done a lot of PL this year and not so much layouts I could use for calendars. A Cindy KCB collab sounds like it could save my life!

I've always used Cindy's temps and used the same set for a couple years in a row, but this year I might use quick pages instead since my time is at a heavy premium this year.

The last two years I've used the calendar quick pages... So much work to do my own when I have a family that most don't appreciate it.

I love using the calendar quick pages! Can't wait to see what's coming this year. I usually buy mine sometime in October so I can be ready for Black Friday printing sales.

I need to get an early start as well. I didn't make any for 2014 and it is the first year in like 10 that I hadn't made any. My MILs both want one! DH is frustrated that we don't have one hanging up. LOL I NEED them for 2015.

Last year my laptop was broken, so the calendars came out in May! I don't like quickpage calendars. I like to put in all my own stuff. I can't wait 'til the templates come out. I'm ready.

I would looooove to see some calendar products out in Sept or early Oct. We celebrate the holidays starting the beginning of December and I can never have calendars finished and printed for gifts when they come out in November. #firstworldproblems

Calendars are the one time a year I do quick pages and I'm very thankful for them!

Wow, you girls were thinking about calendars really early! I just now started thinking about making my 2015 calendar and was wondering when the templates & quick pages will start to come out. I've used Cindy's templates for a few years and last year used the quick pages. I can't wait to see who Cindy is teaming up with this year!! Any idea when we'll start to see the calendars in the shoppe?

Calendars are the one thing I would like to make, but never know how to go about it so I just don't do it. I made one once for myself one year, but I made it as the year went one, one page at a time... I did this so I could take a pic each month of me and the boys in theme.... and to have the photo current! Something about photos of us that are over a year old doesn't appeal to me, but perhaps that's the one thing I need to just get over. Has anyone made a calendar with scenery pics rather than family ones??
So if anyone wants to share how they look at the project and get it done, I'd really appreciate it. I just think it would make a great gift and would love to add it to my annuals.

Does anyone know if any designers will be releasing a calendar this year? Cindy probably isn't and I thought it was getting quite late now?

I'm counting on these! Hope they do it!

I've also been using Cindy's QPs for the last few years and I'm still hoping Cindy or another designer will release something on DSD. There's really only 1 other digiscrapping shop I pay attention to, but I haven't seen 8.5x11 toppers come out there, either. Maybe too many people have moved away from paper calendars and it isn't worth the time investment for designers anymore.
I know Shutterfly has 12x12 calendars, and if no one does calendar QPs I may look into those so that I can use them with my existing LOs or other QPs in the shoppe. But I print 8 copies for the extended family, and I don't think they'd want such big calendars.

Cindy... are you perhaps doing bottoms for your calendar topper templates from before? I'm lazy and don't want to make my own bottoms but thought of using the same templates and flipping them, etc. to make them look different this year.

Fortunately, I don't need bottoms; I just use the ones that come with the calendars I order. I have Cindy's 2012 and 2013 templates and her quick pages from last year with KCB. I think I'm going to mix it up with a few of the quick pages, a few of the pages that I made in 2013, and maybe a few new pages with the 2012 templates. Honestly, I don't think that anyone who gets the calendars would really care if there are duplicate page designs - they just like the new pictures each year.

I was looking for either new quick pages this year or new temps since I haven't had new ones for a few years, but I give up - LOL. I need to get them done soon! |

Speaking of calendars. I see the ones in the shoppe for 2014 are mostly 11 x 8,5 which those of us that print at home and aren't in the states might have difficulties printing.
Is there a chance of the ones coming this year (if there are any) will be available in both orientations? I would LOVE to make calendars of my own, but as long as they're in letter size I won't be able to print them :/

I use the bottoms because I print mine at home and bind them using the binding machine at work.

Will the calendar bottoms be released at all?
Also last year was the first year I bought the templates and was wondering if there is any other site I can purchase previous years? |
