Fun 3-D Perpetual Calendar

Here is a gift idea that I came across while I was browsing online. I made this out of a 12x12 dimensional frame that I found at Michael's. I gave this one to my sister for her birthday, but I also have made similar ones for Christmas gifts (forgot to take pictures of those before I gave them away....OOPS!!). I bought some 12x12 clear calendar pages and put them inside the glass on the frame. The glass makes a wonderful dry erase board. I also gave the receivers a dry erase marker to go along with it. I love how you can add dimensional adhesive to pop elements off the page. I left the green mat empty so that they can put in a picture of their family. (Sorry for the poor pictures....it can be pretty hard to take pictures through glass)......
