Sweetheart - looks like gift wrap or perhaps a file folder?

It looks great!

I love using calendars for wrapping paper. If it's a birthday present, I try to use the same month as the birthday boy or girl.

Nice! I used my calendar that looks similar to that one to line my kitchen drawers (well actually one drawer as I have different paper in each one).
