Hi everyone, Jo here — thanks so much for joining me. Today we’re working on the August page of our 2026 Lavinia Calendar, inspired by the busy little honeybees, Bumble & Hum.
We’ll set the scene with those lovely Sunflower stamps, layered over a softly inked honeycomb stencil. For colour, I’m blending Elements inks — Sahara, Russet Orange, Truffle and Paprika — to create a warm, sun-kissed palette.
To finish, we’ll add bright highlight splatters with the yellow Posca Sparkle Pen for that late-summer glow.
I can’t wait to see your August pages — have fun! To learn more about the techniques and products used to make this beautiful design, head over to
