Sorry about the photo. I'll try to get a better pic tomorrow in the daylight.
I loved all the calendars in today's IC challenge! There are many more I felt inspired by, but just didn't have the time to do them. Maybe later.
For this one, I chose [Schoolhouse Calendar 5th row down in the right hand column. This also fits for Friday's LSC challenge to use a black card.
I stamped my Victorian house image (Unknwn and totally unmarked) w/ black ink onto r.red. I cut it out, then cut it apart and layered it back together w/ foam tape for a 3d look.
I stamped the tree trunks (IO) and inked the tops of the trees (Inkadinkado) and stamped them on top of the trunks. I added a stamped and cut out bird (Inkadinkado) holding a tag w/ my greeting (Fiskar's).
The s.saffron layer was stamped w/ a tiny check border (Stampendous). All of this was attached to a black card. TFL
My blog:The Write Stuff. Sorry! I had to delete a bunch of really old posts from my blog & this is one of them.
