March Perpetual Calendar

March is almost over and I just realized I didn't share this month's perpetual calendar page, so.......

This beautiful image is a digital stamps from Crafts and Me entitled "Lady of Opal".   I printed the image on to watercolor paper and then painted it with Distress Ink refills and a water brush.  Love the bright yellows of this image. 

February Perpetual Calendar

Well February has been a busy month so far, with babysitting the grandchildren, and watching the progress on our new home, as walls are finally up, and loads of different trades are put in heating, plumbing and electrical.  Only a few more months to go and then we will be moving in!!!

Today's project is the next page for the perpetual calendar I designed using images from Crafts and Me.  The image was colored with Distress reinkers and a water brush, and then I added shimmer with a clear Wink of Stella brush.

Keep watching for the rest of the calendar pages that I will be posting soon.

January Perpetual Calendar

A few years ago I made a calendar that featured different stamps companies, and one of the requests I got after that was to design a calendar that could be used throughout multiple years, so the perpetual calendar was designed.  I love the gorgeous images from Sara Burrier that Crafts and Me carry, and I have always loved fairies and elves, so it was an easy decision to base my calendar on this theme.

This beauty was painted using the Ranger line of Distress inks, but only the reinkers were used.  I filled one of the palettes from Ranger with the reinkers and then used a water brush to color.  Touches of sparkle were added to the wings, and a light covering of Stampendous Frantage Embossing Enamel finished off the page.
