Aga this is stunning!! Love how you took a feminine stamp and made the design totally masculine!! It looks like the kind of gift set you'd get in a high-end boutique store!!
Lovely. Happy heart day!
This is SUCH a great way to use a calendar set. I let mine just sit on my shelf most of the time. I will try this idea for birthdays, too!!

Great project, Aga - love that wrapping paper - nice job!
I love the fact that this card is beautiful but not frou-frou. Whenever I give my husband greeting cards, his biggest complaint is the fact that they almost always have glitter on them.
Wonderful set. The calendar is just perfect !
Stunning, stunning, stunning. Just adore what you created.
Gorgeous card and wrapping!
