October - Chrysanthamum - Y00, Y04, Y08, and used the Y04 to pick up some YR07 and lightly add some additional color. G82, 85 and a little G28. The words here were stamped in Versamark, and Gold Embossed. Cut out with Nesties and a touch of gold dot bling.
November - Cyclamen - Ok - this was the second hardest for me to get right. Mainle because most Cylcamen is pink, and I wanted fall colors on my calendar. So I colored several versions. I finally found a pic of one online that was peachy orange, and used that to go buy. R02, and R05. The greens are all over the place. YG25 for the stems, G94 and 99 for the leaves with G28 to add some extra dark. I then used the blender and removed some of the green and then highlighted those spots further with a white gel pen. Cut with Nesties.
December - Amaryllis - This is probably my favorite of the ones I have colored. The flowers are R22, 24, 27, 29.G82, 85, 28. I highlighted a bit with the white gel pen. The yellow is Y04. I then cut out with a nestie and then left it in the Nestie and sponged on the Brilliance Blue ink. The red was cut out with a nestie, but the green was in between, so I put the smaller nestie down and outlined it with a white pencil and then cut it out, and it was a great in the middle size. The holly is Bazzill and the red berries are Jolees Hot Fix.
Thank you for looking.
