Taylored Expressions Calendar Challenge October!

Hi all! Welcome to the October edition of the Taylored Expressions Monthly Calendar Challenge!   You are all invited to play along. All you need to do is use any calendar product from the TE store and link your project to the Inlinkz button on Taylor's blog.  If you play along in 10 or more of the monthly challenges, you will be entered in a drawing to win a TE prize pack valued at over $150!!  Please use the keyword TECALCHALwhen entering your project to online galleries.  Getting a late start?  It's perfectly okay, all you need to do is link up your projects at any time in the coordinating month's Inlinkz on Taylor's blog before December 31st.

I will be using the Perpetual Calendar each month. The Perpetual Occasions calendar is the perfect solution for keeping track of birthdays, anniversaries, and other important occasions!! The calendar is printed on sturdy 100 lb. white cardstock with blank inserts separating each month. The blank inserts can be decorated any way you choose. It can be used year after year and it makes a wonderful gift. You can see all the Fabulous calendar products HERE

For my October page I chose to use the Totally Tags Halloween Set set! I just LOVE all the Halloween tags and thought a few of them would make perfect headstones for a spooky graveyard scene, complete with a big old harvest moon, lol 8-)... I stamped my Headstones with Memento Tuxedo Black ink,  onto some grey CS from my stash, cut them out with the Totally Tags Dies and popped them up with a bit of foam tape.. I created my Spooky BG clouds with the TE Clouds Border Die, Dusty Concord Distress ink and a small stippling brush. I added the ground with the help of my trusty Copics and the full harvest moon with an SB Classic Circles Die cut shaded with Wild Honey and Rusty Hinge Distress inks. To finish it all up I added a bit more shading with Dusty Concord and some Fun Spider webs and Spiders created with the Spiderweb Border Die, the Spiders & Spiderweb Dies and a little Stardust Stickles just for Fun! 8-)
