I am in the process of making a 13 month calendar for my son and I use the markers for the calendar template and dates. Here are a few photos of what I have done. There are a few more on my blog! Jlw311 attached the following image(s):

The markers work really well for this our Cricut group have been making a calendar for 2011 since January and we have been using the markers for the grids it is sooooo much fun.

That is so cute your little one is such an angel. What size did you use with the markers on your page? Is it a 12X12 page?

Thank you everyone! This is my first time ever making the chirp. It is a 12x12 calendar and I used Nana's Nursery: Baby Boy paper. The paper is thick enough to draw the template right on the back and the markers do not bleed through. Then you can use the other side for your layout..... saved on paper and made it look so much neater.

I have also tried doing this but I used the numbers on the Designer Calendar cart but prefer the ones you have used. Which cart did they come from please? Did you use a Gypsy to make your design? x

I used the "unmentionable" program to create my design and a font off my computer.

Great job! You've inspired me! I have been wanting to do calendars for Christmas next year but have been struggling trying to figure out exactly how to do it. As far as the "unmentionable" program. I do wish they'd just learn to play nice and get along. Seems to me PC would do more business by encouraging people to explore their creativity. Oh well, guess the all might dollar wins again.

Great job! I love that I can use my markers and make my own calendar (in whatever size i desire)! I love Designer's Calendar and make a new calendar with my markers every month! I can vary the size according to what pictures I want to include in the top portion that month and I save $$ when I don't have to purchase those expensive calendar kits! That is a lovely calendar! Keep up the good work!
