Lord of the dead-ringers. Well, sort of.
Two years ago I made a calendar in which I took all our family members and turned them into either fantasy characters or cartoon character.
Here is my Lord of The Rings Bunch.
You will find the hubby, my three daughters, their men, and a couple of my grandsons and some great nephews. Can you tell which characters in the trilogy that each of them portrays???
This year I have one month to come up with an idea for a family calendar. I'm starting to have an anxiety attack about it. If I don't start it soon, it will never happen.
Hope someone out there can be my muse.

I'm not certain on the family members, and (without looking anything up) I would guess the following in order:
Boromir
Gandalf
Merry, Pippin, Sam and Frodo
Elrond
Strider
Galadriel.
Pamela, as a student of WV you should appreciate this one: fkufkah
CUTE idea for last year's calendar...I'll think on this year's...My, you're creative! I woulda never thought of something like this (so maybe you don't want my stinkin' inept ideas).
You'd better get crackin'!
did you use photoshop? Ive been wanting to do something like this but I am not sure how to get started. it not a calendar tho, more like a book.
you missed
the three ...
Arwen,Aragon, and Eowyn
as for WV, it's just blogger swearing at itself. If I was so inclined I'd second that.

I used Picture It
I have photoshop, but for some reason cannot master it. I haven't taken too much time with it because I get frustrated.
LittleJen,
then you should at least read the books. They are classics. Tolkien is a master.
Robin,
Any Idea is welcome. I'm in a creative funk. I couldn't even paint this weekend. I just threw away my "canvas" it was so irritating.

A calendar of Gourds. In the raw? There just isn't much substance to a gourd when you get past the surface. How about you do the photos?
Karmyn is correct. And the gourd doesn't drop very far from the vine.

for some other ideas...fairies, elves and goblins, Gilligan's Island(?), funny faces, or do a spin off on the travelling gnome...pictures from around the world and paste pics into them!!
I've never been able to get the hang of Photoshop either.
What about the Brady Bunch, you've got three, boys, three girls and mom and dad (screw a Alice).
If you ever do one for me, I'd like to be Captain Kirk.
Put big lips on someone and then have that person with a leash on someone else....there's Brangelina.
Then, you could have someone jumping up and down on a couch with an alien girlfriend watching....there's TomKat.
Madonna...well, there's so many directions you could go with that one!
I have been looking for an easy photo program..
:)
Two ideas- 1.This year's big trend of course was pirates! Ay Maty.
2. The big lips comment made me think of potato heads as in MR. & Mrs, Potato Head. Just a goofy idea!
