Remember our Free Save The Date Calendar Photo Calendar Cards? Well.. we have created a new one for you that is a little bit on the vintage side.
We have created these Free Calendar Save the Dates for every month of the rest of 2010 and all of 2011. Amy is super duper crafty and decided that she would make you more. We hope you love these as well. The download also includes a fancy little envelope to make your Save the Dates super special. Download them here. {They will take a bit to download because they are 300 dpi files.}
We used some of our favorite photographers as examples. The above photo is from Elizabeth Messina. How dreamy is that picture?
Supplies Needed:
• Printer, we love the Epson Stylus Photo 1400
• #10 Luxe Fino Cream Flat Cards 25 for $6.25
• #10 Open End Luxe Fino Cream Envelopes 10 for $5.50
• Stamp and Ink, or Brads and a 1/8 inch hole punch.
• 4×3 Photos (if you would like to attach an actual photo to the card)
Choose your favorite photo and print or trim to 4 inches by 3 inches and attach it to your Save the Date. You can go to your local photo lab or print them yourself on photo paper. (We have printed the image directly on the card.

The first photo is taken by Caroline Tran and is actually one of sister wedding bloggers Jenn from Green Wedding Shoes. You can see her entire love shoot by clicking here.
The second is by the lovely Elizabeth Messina

Idea One:
Another cute way to mark your date is with a stamp, we chose a heart. Stamp and ink from Michael’s. This is my personal favorite. Super sweet and adds a pop of color.
Idea Two:
Brads are super cute! We found these little gems at Micheal’s and used a 1/8 hole punch.
Idea Three:
If you have access to any photo editing program, you can simply create a circle graphic to mark your date. Or you can just draw in a circle by hand and get some friends to help out!
These are so sweet, perfect for a vintage wedding!
Gosh, I sooo love these! :)
adorable!!

What a lovely idea, and produced so nicely too.
I tried downloading and extracting the files but it’s telling me I need a password..Help!
nora – that’s weird .. there’s no password. you can email me and i’ll send them to you. (:
I have also tried downloading and it is saying it its password protected!
that’s very weird, we don’t have any kind of password on the downloads .. is anyone else having trouble? the file will take quite a while to download they are 300 dpi files … are they completely done when you are trying to open them?

This project is so sweet…=)
I have password problems…what i have to write?
Thank you for your help!
there actually is no password … the folder will take a good bit to download as they are 300 dpi files. You can email me and i’ll send you the one that you need!
sorry but during the extractions there is a password request for every file…i’m interested in the whole project…can you send me in my private email?
thank you
I am also having the password issue…could you email them to me too?
are you on PC computers? that might be it .. maybe you can’t open the zip file … if you would like me to email them to you, just email me and ask. (:

I love these! But I’m having trouble downloading as well. I had no problem with the other save the dates, but for some reason these vintage ones don’t open up? Is it possible to send me the file for October 2010? Thanks!
I am using this idea. Perfect, exactly what I was looking for, fits perfectly with my theme!!!! THANK YOU SOO MUCH!
I love these little calendars! Could you tell me how I can upload a picture right onto the card, just like you did in the samples pictured above?
Thanks!

This are so pretty and sweet! Is there any way to change the font color? My colors are navy and pink, and I would love to have the font be navy! Any ideas??
I have been looking on the internet today for other ideas for save the date cards where I can refer customers to should our cards not be suitable for them.
We have some lovely save the date card designs here Save the date cards printed
Our cards are professionally designed and hand printed using hot foil technique.
I love the way you’ve printed the sepia image directly on the card…is there a way we can do that with these files? When I open them they open up ad jpegs in Microsoft Photo Editor. Thank you!!
How do paste a picture into the file? I love these but cant figure out how i would insert a photo. please help!
Has anyone figured out how to load the picture in the file to print on the card?
I have saved the calendar layout as a jpeg, imported it into Microsoft PowerPoint, then inserted the picture into the slide. Then saved it back as a jpeg. Worked for me.
I have been trying to download the April 2011 save the date, in the new vintage style with no luck, I would love for you to email it to me if you could, thank you so much, Donna. Your site is so beautiful.
