Charee, oh my gosh I LOVE this project. I can’t wait to get mine and get started! I was thinking it would make a super gift but after watching your GREAT video, I’m keeping this one. I think I’m going to put a piece of clear acetate on the “notes” side of the little 3x4 ephemera cards so I can wipe them off and re-use them each year. Thanks for the great kit! P.S. I was a little bummed when I read that you were making the 2019 kits simpler as I think they are perfect the way they are, but I realize you can’t please everyone! I absolutely love everything G45 so looking forward to seeing your new ideas!
Hello Cherri! Thanks for much for your feedback and tips! I love the acetate idea. Be sure to share your project when you have it completed using the #CubG45 hashtag. Our projects for 2018 ranged from complicated to simple. For 2019 we will be focusing on more simple projects, like this tutorial here. We will still be sharing fun new techniques each month, but try to duplicate steps as we did with the calendar templates to keep things easy to finish with beautiful results. Thanks again for being a Club G45 member, and as always Happy Papercrafting!
Yes! We are thrilled that you will be creating one of these Calendar Easel Boxes. Be sure to share your projects using the #ClubG45 hashtag, and as always, Happy Papercrafting! -Charee
I would like to give you a tip on how to score your Chip board...take a ruler and score it with a kraft knife ...will make you life alot simpler..you just score it with the knife not cut thru it...hope that helps
What a great tip! I will be sure to try this out, it sounds like it will be a quick fix. Thanks for sharing, and as always, Happy Papercrafting! -Charee
I love this project! I have purchased three kits. One for myself and two as gifts. One question, where did you find the calendar templates? I would love to add 2020 and 2021 in the boxes that I give as gifts. I know that there is a blank calendar, but I would love to have them printed out.
There is a place to get calendars for other years: print-a-calendar.com/make-a-calendar. 2020 is available now, but 2021 is not. It will come up later in the year.
Just want to say..i am not at all pleased with quality of paper you used to print this collection..the paper is thin and flimsy...not only that the chipboard is nit of medium weight..way too thin and flimsy...honestly graphic 45 is becoming a dissappointment. you went from 24 sheets per pack down to 16 only same price and now you are cutting corners on paper quality...unfortunately i will be cancelling my club kits as they are not worth the 97.09 i pay in canadian funds and addition 20.00 for custom fees and taxes.. Sorry but i just cant see me paying this no longer..
Thank you for your feedback, we appreciate you being a part of Club G45. The Medium Weight Chipboard is ideal for the type of projects we are creating. We created an Easel out of both Heavy Weight and Medium Weight and prefer the Medium. The 24 sheet paper pads went from an MSRP of $24 to $20 with the 16 sheets, plus stickers to a $20 MSRP, but a value of $23.56. We had G45 Retailers and customers ask that we bring the price of our Paper Pads down, which is why we made the change. We understand that we can't make every customer happy, but we do listen and try to do what is best for everyone. Thanks again for your feedback and Happy Paper Crafting!
Hello Sharon, our apologies for not addressing the paper quality, that was our oversight. We have not changed the quality of our paper in any form, we use the 65-pound paper and use the same printer in the USA we have from the start. We always encourage feedback and hope to continue to make our products better as a result. Thanks so much for watching, and as always, Happy Papercrafting!

Gorgeous!
I will try to create a December Daily, or a planner, or calendar using your amazing Graphic 45. I have a great crush on Nutcracker-Sweet.

@@graphic45papers no disrespect intended, but you didn't address the "quality" of the paper they were referring to.
