For Day-Counting Creatives
With a little more than a week left in 2007, I'm pleased to announce the release of my annual free gift calendar (Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!), tagged for 2008 as a "Printable Inspirational Photo Calendar" and now available for download at Creativity-Portal.com as single month pages.
As a newbie photo-taking enthusiast, I feel the utmost satisfaction in incorporating my own pictures in my design projects. The calendar is truly unique this year because of its use of my own original photos — each carefully selected not only for their "perfect" beauty, but also for their "imperfect" beauty before being cropped and colored in a particular perspective and accompanied by reflective sentiments I was moved to write while meditating on the "why" of each image. I hope each calendar page will move you on some level to contemplate the deeper things in life and appreciate the beauty that is to be found in every thing.
If you haven't already, you'll soon recognize the connection between the calendar and my Nature Sentiments Gift Tags & Note Cards e-Kit promoted earlier this week. This is how creative children are spawned and how one inspiring idea leads to another. Perhaps a third child will appear as I am moved to write longer pieces about each photo and its accompanying sentiment. If I do, each essay will appear on the Current Living Web site and I'll be sure to mention them on this page under the "Accompanying Photo Calendar Essays" section below.
One more thing of the ripple effect kind... each month a new "free sample" gift tag/note card based on a calendar month's photo and sentiment will be available for download at the Creative Slush Web site. To keep up with all of those delicious details, you'll just have to go download the free calendar now and see the little reminder notes I've embedded on each of their pages so that you don't miss out on any of the "print-portunities" I'm extending in 2008.
And yes, 2008: Isn't it Great? •
