This month's recipe for the Craft Barn calendar challenge is pink and butterflies. I used a large butterfly background stamp by a company called Gourmet Rubber Stamps and stamped it in Brilliance starlite black (this is my go to ink pad when I want a soft grey). As the stamp was not large enough to cover the whole of my calendar page I placed it centrally and covered the unstamped areas with pink paint. I then used a Fiskars border punch top and bottom (the blue areas you see are actually holes) and added some tiny punched butterflies. The pink butterflies were stamped and cut from patterned paper and card and highlights added with a Wink of Stella pen.
Very lovely calender Rukhshana !
ReplyDeleteLovely calendar! I love the way you've done the butterfly background and added extras too.
ReplyDeleteLovely page great for the theme. It's interesting you use the Brilliance Starlite for grey... This is my go to ink for lots of things but with my re-inker always on hand I get a black!
