I have just finished a set of 12 Photoshop brushes for 2010 calendar months, one brush for each month. These brushes will work well with the 5×5 tri-fold calendar card templates that I have. See pictures below for samples how the months/days created with the brushes look in my 2009 calendar cards. These two lovely calendar cards are included in our 2008 Templates Bundle.

If you have purchased these calendar templates from last year, you can now re-use the card design for 2010, by stamping the new 2010 months on the card to replace the 2009 months. New 2010 calendar card template designs will be coming to the store in October.

I have now included the 2010 Calendar brushes in the download of our 2008 Templates Bundle. You will receive the brushes for free with the purchase. For those of you who have already purchased the 2008 Templates Bundle, please email me and I will send you the download link to get the calendar brushes.

Enjoy and happy Wednesday!

Check out this beautiful Wedding Thank You card created using the Aqua Damask Holidays Collection, shared by Mark at Ridout Photography.

“Just a quick note to say thanks for helpin me out. Your designs are well made and I just wanted to share one of your designs with a few tweaks. Feel free to blog this. I think it’s a great example of using your templates as a starting point. …Not to mention that your cards just don’t have to be Christmas related if the initial design was created for that. This is a good example of using your Christmas design for a wedding thankyou.”

Thank you Mark for sharing your fabulous card and great example!
