A riding is an electoral district, also called a constituency. I presume the Canadians adopted this word from the British, more specifically from the English.

Cheers! It's a sunset. Although I have and do use the calendar script, it's quite quick and easy to create my own dates/boxes. Carole demonstrate creating calendar date boxes and more in her Corel you tube video. I remember it because Carole uses some of my photos to demonstrate different layouts.

I like the idea of using the fading white gradient. Like you I will choose to use a subtle texture later on the background. Your photos are great.

Here is April. Featuring the Red Squirrel.

After many years of creating my own calendars, even before I joined the campus, that in my view I like layouts to be consistent with legible text throughout, as you never know who is going to view them. I have created several different shaped date boxes, personally I like the one that fills the lower half of the page, with rounded corners. Even though calendars are functional, I still like to make sure that the images maintian the main focus on each page. Wonderful pages submitted, each one a great source of inspiration.

Always a pleasure. We all do our bit to be supportive, encouraging and helpful when we can.

Mary, if you go back to a previous calendar workshop you will find dates which will fit the whole width of your page. That way the lines and everything else will be cleaner. Mind you, you'll have to scroll through them to match the right dates to the right month.

Carole, I have all of the supplies, including the alphas. I'm sure you do too, if not I can send them to you via a zipped folder. Also in Feb 2017 there was the first story time challenge. I can't believe how time flies, it doesn't seem that long ago, until you said 8yrs ago. Lol

Here is February. I'm going to draw your attention to some minor pieces that have been left in the making of some of these templates, which require you to remove. They are small details, and can be overlooked. Donna and Jacques, I notice that there is line down in the bottom left hand corner which needs to be removed. Also Jacques you have a line going from top to bottom on the right hand side. I suspect you will need to activate the eraser tool, and one of the layers, possibly a layer in the mask to remove it. I'm speculating the photo you used. O Great work Donna and Jacques.

It wasn't a conventional style of calendar like we have been making in recent years. A scrapbooking layout style. There was a choice of using a quick page, a template or both to showcase photos.

I couldn't resist, a little banter. lol

I am also participating in this calendar workshop. The very first Up to date challenge I participated in was in December 2016 (2017 calendar). Which was a very different challenge. A return to that particular challenge may be a thought. I believe that it precedes any of the challenges and workshops.

No I hadn't read that other comment. So what I thought was misspelt, was correct and the others were the ones spelt incorrect. What a twist that was. At least it has been spotted, and you can rectify it, just as well you have saved it as a psp file. Haven't you??? Lol

I appreciate that.

I agree with Carole, I also like the use of the hearts. I notice you have misspelt Michael at the bottom.
