Step 2: Paint the frame with white acrylic paint. Once dry, add some pink and blue paint for a weathered look.

Step 3: Use white paint as glue and paint the back side of torn music sheet and adhere to the frame. Paint the edges of the music sheet with white to make it blend in with the frame.

Step 4: Punch holes on the calendar sheets and stamp the back of the calendar sets with a journaling stamp. Be sure to use also the last piece (product packaging) of the set and stamp at the blank side. Make sure to flip the calendar the right way before stamping so that when you lift the card upwards the print is correct.

Step 5: Tie the calendar sets loosely with pink ribbon. The front and back of the set should look like the photos below.
