Banksia Desktop Calendar - Couture Creations

Hi Everyone, Happy New Year!  Anet here today and welcome to my inspiration post. 

I made a Desktop Calendar with the new and soon to be released Homely Florals Collection from Couture Creations.

Instructions:

I first trimmed white cardstock to 4 3/4" x 11" and score it at 5 1/2" to create card base.

For the stand I trimmed white cardstock to 4" x 4 3/4" and score 4" side at 1"2" at both edges and then at 2". I fold it in half, then fold 1/2" flaps back (looks like a "w") and adhere the stand along the inside edges of the tent (middle fold is up).

I then trimmed Carnelian Cardstock to 4 1/2" x 5 1/4" Couture Creations Blending Card to 4 1/4" x 5".

I stamped the Charming Banksia Stamp onto the blending card using the Stamp and Colour Outline Ink Pad Soft Black.

I then coloured it with the Couture Creations Twin Tip Alcohol Ink Markers.

Twin Tip Alcohol Ink Marker Combinations:

Banksia: 205, 216, 188, 106, 123

Leaves: 9544, 2288, 377

Stem: 7502, 401, 479

I then die-cut Carnelian Cardstock with the Homely Florals Love Sentiment Cutting Die and Butterfly Garden Ornate Corners Die.

I adhered the Couture Creations 2022 Calendar Tab onto Carnelian Cardstock which I trimmed to 2 1/8" x 3 1/8" to finish.
