PaperArtsy week: day 2

Hello, 
Today is the first day for the 12 week calendar challenge, and this is when you will start to see what we have been up to with our calendars. 

We are all doing different calendars, and Neil chose to make his on 12x12 pages and bind them with the Bind it All (at the end of the 12 weeks).

Bonjour, 
Aujourd'hui marque le premier jour pour notre challenge calendrier et c'est Neil qui "ouvre le bal". 
Comme je vous l'ai dit Samedi, nous avons tous fait des calendrier différents, et Neil a choisi de faire le sien sur des pages en 12x12" (30.5 x 30.5 cm) et de les relier avec la Bind it All à la fin.


The how-to

The 12 x 12 page was painted in Baltic blue fresco paint. Stamp cogs around the background in black. The tile shapes were stamped and inked with Antique linen and peeled paint distress inks and are glued down.
The moth was cut 7 times, inked and stamped with the cogs in pumice stone. 
The days were handwritten and the month is old letter tiles with Inka gold - hematite.

The look-like


Material:
PaperArtsy stamp set clocks 5
PaperArtsy die - moth
PaperArtsy Fresco paint Baltic Blue
Distress inks Antique linen, pumice stone and peeled paint and broken china
Inka gold - hematite

See you tomorrow :)

  4. Gorgeous, I'm really excited about this challenge. I was wondering if there was going to be a badge we could use for the next 12 weeks on our blog to let others know? Kezzy x
