I told you I liked this week's CPS sketch, so here it is again -- this time in the form of my monthly 6" x 6" desk calendar page!
Stamp: Lockhart Adirondack Chair
Papers: Memory Box Inspire (green dotted) & Sprout; Prism Desert Coral Medium (calendar mat), Curious Iridescent Poison Ivory (printed calendar).
Accessories: Fiskars scalloped scissors, paper piercing tool & mat, Fresh Grass Dew Drops, Dimensionals (calendar), sponge.
Ink: Palette Burnt Umber (chair), Ranger Vintage Photo Distress Ink (sponged edges), Copic markers (the terracotta colored Ciao marker is E08-Brown for flower pot):
I just stamped the chair on the printed paper and colored it in, trying to blend the two into one scene . . . fun, fun!
This page will slip into this desk calendar/vertical hanger I got from Doodliedoo.
That is a great sketch for a desk calender...what a great idea on your part! The stamping and all the details are just gorgeous!! Great job!

I love how you made the DP work with the chair. I have yet to ink my chair up, but you have given me inspiration.
Great calendar idea.
