Calendar Challenge-on time!


Hurray! I am actually posting this on time-1st May!
I was so late with my April page last month I didn't even bother to link up over at Kate's blog!
If you don't know what this challenge is about check out our host's blog, Kate Crane.


Here is my completed April page


And here is May!
I used Dylusions paints and sprays, Mr Hueys white ink spray and some stencils.
Thanks for looking

I really like your May page, the colours are so beautiful and the white spray looks somehow magical on top of the other colours. Lovely page! :)

I was impressed with both months, but I really liked how you used shadows around the April squares. That really set them apart. I so enjoyed that!!

You asked about British Phone Box tea. I join an online group each Tuesday and we show what we are drinking. I was gifted with a tin of tea in the shape of a red British Phone Box and added it so I would always have that memory. Thanks for asking.

I am in awe of your April page...all that lovely color, layers, textures and then the bonus...dragongflys. What a great stamp. Really scrumptious pages, can't wait to see May all completed.

Both gorgeous pages Sam, I just love the colours you use. I really must try and get hold of some of those sprays.
