Calendar Challenge
The prompts for our May page in The Craft Barn's Calender Challenge are Magenta and Flowers.
I mixed some purple and pink gelatos with water on a palette and then used a white ink pad to stamp flowers all over my page. I then used the same stamp, dabbed it in my magenta mix and re-stamped the flowers.
I stencilled May with a silver pen and coloured it in.
I really like the quote but could not find an attribution; it is also written with my silver pen, and then I added a strip of washi tape in a pink/magenta-ish colour, lol.
Finally I flicked on a few specks of silver Wink of Stella. Shame the sparkle doesn't show in the photo.
In caterpillar news, our chrysalides are now in their net habitat.
Hopefully we will see the stirrings of new things in about a week. YaY! It's so exciting!
Stay tuned!
I would like to take this opportunity to say thank you to all my followers for your love, support and encouraging words, you all mean so very much to me. Thank You!
With loving {{Hugs}}
Take care and be well
