It's that time of year again. When I completely lose my mind with all the busy-ness of life. Baby Q turned 1 year old yesterday, Halloween is on Saturday, parties, parties, parties, then there is Thanksgiving, E's birthday and Christmas. Whew. I'm already into 2010.
Wait...I'm slightly ahead of myself...Back to Halloween. I made this Halloween Countdown calendar using Harmonie products for The Scrap Review because Halloween is almost as important as Christmas in our house and sometimes I just need to know exactly how many days are left until the big spooky night of complete and utter chaos.
Materials: Harmonie calendar kit, Harmonie acrylic stamps, Harmonie pattern papers (Bal Masque collection); 3L pop dots; Paper Studio chipboard fence; Ranger distress ink; StazOn ink, Sakura crystal lacquer; Sharpie pen
I love these little jack-o-lanterns. I added crystal lacquer to the eyes and mouths to give the illusion of light.

That cute spider is the key to this calendar. Each day she moves closer to Halloween! E was my hand model. She loves helping me with my picture-taking. She always holds my photo tent to make sure that it doesn't blow away. Really sweet.
I'm so excited that this project appeared on Scrap Scene today! Yeah!
I hope that you have a spooky and safe Halloween!
xoxo
