In the template I designed, I wanted it to look as if it were a calendar. It was nice since I started on the 1st of June. I used the dimensions of 5540 px wide x 2145 px high that were given in the instructions. Then I inserted a solid fill layer, made shapes, added text, and that basically made my template. To add the pictures I put each individual photo above the shape that I wanted it to go in. Next, I sized it down around the size it needed to be, right clicked the layer and choose 'create clipping mask' . Then I could really see what was inside the shape, and size it appropriately. I continued this until each shape was filled. Then I added the text for each number. To post on the blog, I sized it down to the long side at 700 px.

Your template turned out great! I love how it is so simple. It doesn't distract from your photos at all, but it is still really eye catching.

I like how you labeled the date rather than the day of the week. Clever! Nice colors and placement. Very nice work!
