In just a few days, the calendar rolls over to 2024! Let’s celebrate with some fun handmade, desktop calendars. (See this past post for a couple of other cute designs.)
Today’s calendar design features a sneak peak from Stampin’ Up!’s January-April 2024 Mini Catalog. The Doggone Friendly stamp set is perfect for any and all dog lovers. You can purchase it beginning January 4, 2024, when the catalog goes live. (#162729–$20)
This full background stamp suits all of our family well! Don’t you just love all of the dog faces? So many breeds to choose from. I created this calendar for my sister who has a Boston Terrier named Reggie.
Doggone Friendly 2024 Desktop Calendar
Basic Black card stock base measures 4 1/4 x 11, scored at 2 3/4 and 5 1/2
Layer for the base of the calendar: Real Red card stock measuring 5 1/4 x 4, Basic White measuring 5 x 3 3/4, stamped with the Doggone Friendly stamp set with Memento, Basic Black measuring 3 1/2 x 3 1/2. Add notepad.
Calendar layer measurements: Basic Black card stock measuring 5 1/4 x 4, Basic White measuring 5 x 3 3/4 stamped with the Doggone Friendly stamp set in Memento, Basic Black card stock measuring 3 1/2 x 2 3/4. Add calendar.
Created the focal piece by stamping the Doggone Friendly stamp set with Memento on white and die cutting the dog I wanted to feature with a circle from the Stylish Shapes Dies. Layered this on a circle punched with Real Red card stock. Added a bow from the Baker’s Twin Essentials Pack. Finished it off with three Black Matte Dots.
I know my sister will love this calendar, especially when it features her dog.
Be sure to watch the video below for step-by-directions from my craft room in Mesa, Arizona. Although the video features a different calendar design, the basic instructions still hold true.

This is no small accomplishment; less than 1% of demonstrators worldwide achieve this. The stampers in this group come from different countries around the world. Be sure to visit all of the participating stampers to gain a host of crafting inspiration. Look for a list of hoppers at the end of this post.
The year 2024 is just around the corner! So that means it’s time to create some fun, handmade desktop calendars. I love to make these every year and give them as gifts. Today, I show you a version that includes a notepad. The layout follows the same principles as an easel card.
Petal Park 2024 Desktop Calendar
I love this project because you can use a variety of stamps, inks, and papers to create individualized calendars for your friends and family. Check back this week to see other themes I’ve created.
Here are a few basic directions:
Boho Blue card stock base measures 4 1/4 x 11, scored at 2 3/4 and 5 1/2
Layer for the base of the calendar: Night of Navy card stock measuring 5 1/4 x 4, Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper measuring 5 x 3 3/4, Boho Blue measuring 3 1/2 x 3 1/2. Add notepad.
Calendar layer measurements: Night of Navy card stock measuring 5 1/4 x 4, Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper measuring 5 x 3 3/4, Boho Blue card stock measuring 3 1/2 x 2 3/4. Add calendar.
Created the flowers using Stampin’ Up!’s Petal Park stamp set and coordinating Petal Park Builder Punch with Night of Navy and Boho Blue Classic Stampin’ Ink Pads. The sentiment comes from the Easter Bunny stamp set. And, the label is die cut with Basic White card stock from the Countryside Corners Dies. Stamped with Night of Navy ink. Added pearls to the flowers.
Here’s another version using the Ink Botanicals Designer Series Paper, Petal Park stamp set, Petal Park Builder Punch, and the sentiment from Playing the Rain (heat embossed with white embossing powder).
