So here's some eye candy. My calendar contribution for our local Demo Swap. These are 4 5/8" x 5 1/2" in size, and my month is June 2011. I made 14 of these.. last night! LOL! Nothing like putting things off till the last minute!
The background is Baja Breeze. The next layer is Naturals White, on which I stamped, from the Style Beautiful stamp set, the Sentiment in Early Espresso and heat embossed another of the stamps in the set using clear embossing powder and Versamark. I sponged the edges with Early Espresso. (Sponging thanks to an ink mishap! LOL!) Then, I cut out the scallop square of Greenhouse Garden DSP using the Big Shot and Scallop Squares Duo Die (new, in the Holiday Mini) and cut a slightly smaller square of Vellum CS to lay over top. The Fleur De Lis is in Rich Razzleberry and is also part of the Style Beautiful set. The flowers are Fast and Fabulous (a hostess set) stamped in Pale Plum and Rich Razzleberry, outlined in Early Espresso and cut out. I attached a twine bow with mini glue dots. The brad is from the Antique Brads set - my new faves! The calendar itself is sponged in Baja Breeze.
I probably overdid it, but this is my style. I am very pleased with the results!
Thanks for looking, and HAPPY ANNIVERSARY to my wonderful Husband, who is over in the Arabian Peninsula!! Can't wait to visit him next month!!!
