October Calendar

October Calendar
Close-up of Betty Witch Tag
Happy Halloween!  I am so excited to participate in the Simply Betty Stamps 12 days of Halloween.  I usually make a calendar at the beginning of each month-so I thought this would be perfect for the Simply Betty challenges and the Betty Witch Digi was perfect!

I plan to enter this calendar into the following challenges:

simplybettychallenges.blogspot.com-12 Days of Halloween (Day One-On the First Day of Halloween My Ghould love gave to me... One smiling Skellington Head!)
simplybettychallenges.blogspot.com-Anything but a Card (Halloween)
haunteddesignhouse.blogspot.com-Magical Mayhem
simonsaysstampandshow.blogspot.com-Distressed & Sanded

I colored Betty with my Copic Sketch Markers.  I added some glitter with my Clear Spica Pen and some Crystal Stickles over the cauldron!  I inked, sanded and distressed the image, punched a hole with my hole punch and added some fun fibers.  Then I stamped the calendar using stamps by Hero Arts, Inque, Studio G and Paper Trey Ink.  I colored in the images on the calendar with my Prismacolor Pencils and Gamasol, then inked, sanded and distressed the Calendar.  I cut the word October with my Cricket using Plantin Schoolbook and patterned paper from We AR Memory Keepers (Heebie Jeebies).  I made a border with matching patterned paper and some webbed ribbon.  I added a few die cut embellishments using my Quikutz, Cricket and Glittered Chipboard Elements by My Mind's Eye!

  2. Great calendar! I've tried to do that - making a new one each month - one of my less-than-successful goals. *lol*
