oooh i love all the overlays.
lovely!!!
Good point, the overlays ARE very nice! I like the simple style.
So cute! I am currently obsessed with letter press so this is perfect!
I like the use of the blind emboss a lot. These are really fun!
OK. Who ever the artist/illustrator
of this calendar is, would you please
step forward. I want to know who’s
responsible for these beautiful images!
Letterpress and overprinting , my two weaknesses. Lovely, lovely piece!
Thank you, Grace! And thank you for your nice comments. I love the overprinting too, I purposely left the colored inks transparent.
Wayne: I cut the shapes freehand from black construction paper, then scanned and arranged them in Illustrator.
Thank you again!
