Calender month 1

 

I was asked to make a birthday calender. I've been moving it to the bottom of my "to-do-pile" for some time now, because I don't really now how to tackle this. I'm not supposed to work with real photos. So if I don't use a photo, what do I use? It's going to be A4-sized. What you see here, will be the top part of the first month, while the blank calender will be the bottom half. I think I'm going to bind it with rings.
