Icon is a small image or symbol that appears on a computer screen, website, cellphone and so on. well at this
time I will make an Icon Icon where the icon I created is in the form of a calendar. Well, we discussed what an
icon is and its function, now it's just a matter of making it friends, as usual it can be made using the tools we
often use such as the rectangle tool, rectangle rounded tool, line tool, and patfinder to cut out the shapes
we've made, okay Let's go straight to the manufacturing process.

First, try to make a contact shape with rounded corners.

as usual make it with the rectangle rounded tool.


then copy and paste the shape so that it becomes two but the size is different, like the image below.

after that you try to make text numbers for the date.
then make another shape, here the shape is up to you friends, yes, if there is another shape in your mind, it
can be replaced and this shape is used to display the moon.
after that make the text of the month yes.

then also make the name of the day above the date.
okay, let's go to the coloring stage, try to make a line first to cut the date text and don't forget to right-click on
the date text section first, then select create outlines.

if you have tried to select the text and lines then click patfinder and select divide to cut the text.

all you have to do is follow the coloring process, try the color samples I share below, but if you want to choose
your own coloring, it's fine.
and if you have made the color, you just need to make a black shadow, you make a box first and give it a
gradient color in the box, you can set the color as shown below.

then give transparency, select multiply and set your opacity according to your needs.

then the result will be like the image below.
