How big of a request is too big to ask someone to design something?? I looked around on Etsy, but didn't find anything like what I am looking for and thinking of...
My DD's love having a wall calendar next to their bed. They check off holidays and upcoming days that are important to them. I had originally thought of making an iphoto calendar of past visits, along with character photos on the top portion and having characters autograph ...
I have decided against that, as I really want this to look as Disney as possible.. not something I can achieve alone on iphoto. I'm not looking for a countdown calendar, but something that would start Jan. 1 2015 - as they already have a 2014 calendar they use... I am hoping to have it when we go in October/November, so I can get autographs on it. (I plan on having it spiraled)
I am thinking of a regular 2015 wall calendar, flip style... the top portion images, the bottom portion the calendar section. The cover I was thinking of maybe Cinderella's castle, with tons of random characters all over - if you have ever seen the puzzles that WDW sells, something like that..and personalizing it.
Something like this - but I understand this exact image probably has a copyright.

For the top portions of each month - I am having a hard time thinking of what that would look like. I was thinking lots of random characters, maybe cube style or floating on the page... I have not been able to piece that part of the idea together. If I cube styled some of it, there would be space to sign. If the characters were randomly placed, I was thinking of them on some sort of background, instead of just a blank background. I also would not want each top portion looking the same on each month. I was thinking I would get autographs on the top portions, randomly, and the autographs would not necessarily have to match the photos. On the bottom calendar part, I was thinking Disney font, maybe a character or 2 sandwiching the month. Maybe even personalizing dates in the calendar with our families birthdays.
It's a big job. Probably too big to ask of on Disboards?! I wish I was more creative. I see other people talking about doing things with images that some of the DiSigners create for them, and just not sure how I would go about creating this idea. Has anyone ever seen or made something like that??
Thanks
