I finally finished my February calendar -- at least I got it finished before the month was half over (just barely)!
As a reminder, I'm using a new size of downloadable calendar I made -- these are half sheets of 8.50" x 11" cardstock, measuring 5.50" wide X 8.50" tall and computer printed right onto ivory cardstock. The top is decorated with Echo Park Be Mine paper and accented with this sweet new Lockhart Ribbon Heart stamp:
I stamped the heart with Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto Copic's X-Press It Blending Card and colored it with these Copic markers Atyou Spica Glitter Pens, to match the printed paper:
I free-form cut out the heart and solid pink cardstock mat behind it and popped it up on foam tape. The wonderful sentiment is from Gina K Designs Winter Wonderland Stamp TV Kit -- so pretty! I stamped it with Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto Neenah Natural White cardstock, cut it into a banner shape, and then accented the edges with Copic R85 marker. Tied buttons and black ribbon hangers finish it.
I promise to be early with my March calendar . . . like probably next week! I hope you are enjoying the weekend!
