ATC Calendar Tray with SRM Stickers

Hello friends!!  Do any of you ever buy something and then look at it and wonder what you are going to do with it?  Of course you don't.....well, I do and that is what happened when I bought this ATC Tray and didn't quite know how I wanted to use it.  I knew that I wanted something amazing to go into it, but I just didn't know what.  

I had an assignment to make a calendar project for SRM Stickers and found that the 2016 Decorative Mini Calendar Stickers and cut with the new matching Wafer Thin Die fit in there perfectly.  Take a look.....

To be able to re-use this calendar again next year (with the 2017 stickers, of course), I used some mini clothes pins and covered them with different black and white washi tapes.  I then just used some hot glue to glue these onto the background paper.

I used the Times and Seasons papers from Echo Park for the background papers inside the tray.

At the top of the ATC Tray, I used a sticker from the 2016 Year of Memories Stickers on some vanilla colored cardstock, added some brads to the ends and glued it with a glue dot to the top of the frame.  To use it again next year, I will just have to peel this off and put on a new one...shouldn't be too hard.

To finish off my project, I added some black and white ribbons to the top handle.

So, what do you think of my new re-purposed ATC Tray?  I think that it would be a great gift idea.

This was posted over on the SRM Stickers blog today and I would love it if you would leave a comment on the blog post over there, too.

Hugs,
Amy
