The Maui Stamper

The war in Ukraine and the plight of the Ukrainian people has been on my mind for weeks, and when I started to reflect on my April calendar, it was their sunflower that came to mind. I’ve created this as a reminder on my desktop to keep them all – fighters, citizens, refugees – in my prayers.

• Stamps: Celebrate Sunflowers
• Color Palette: Basic White, Memento Black, So Saffron, Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie, Naturals 700 and 800, Soft Suede, Misty Moonlight
• Accessories: Stampin’ Blends

I masked off the top of the calendar and then stamped the image as close to the top as I could. I used a LOT of color, and kept going back over the image to create variety and intensity. Our new Naturals Blends were the perfect complement to those sunny yellows. I’ve matted this one with a double mat in Daffodil Delight and Misty Moonlight in honor of the Ukrainian colors.

These little calendars are such fun to make, and I sell the pdf for $5 so that you can design your own. Message me for details.
