Hello!
Happy Monday!
For my Vera Lane Studio post this week, I have a New Year Card Calendar:
There always seems to be one or two friends that I forget to send Christmas greetings to, so a New Year card/calendar is my solution this year.
I used Joyful as I think she will bring a smile all through the year. She comes with a selection of birds and two sentiments. I also added a flower from the Sunny digi set.
I made the background with Infusions and Brushos and separated the calendar part from the image with a striped 'line' from the Circles and Stems collage set. The images were coloured with Copics and white highlights were added with a Posca pen. They were fussy cut and glued directly onto the background. I typed (using the Vera Lane Studio Baby Powder font) and printed the first part of the sentiment.
I hope you'll come along and play on Vera Lane.
It's such a friendly, fun place to be!
Here's all the info you need:
Thanks for stopping by today.
