 I am not sure how many new projects I will get done this year
 as this is the state of my craft room:

 Image may contain: table and indoor
Everything packed up ready for the shippers on Thursday - we are on the move again...

Anyway - in this post I am sharing my January page from my Mixed Media Calendar...



You may remember versions from previous years:



The base is a burnt piece of plywood with flip over pages for each month - I have been making new pages for some years now!

 This year's page starts with an MDF shape covered with purple card. I used 'Victorian Velvet' Distress Ink around all edges.
 To this I added a square of Ike's free Poe Raven paper, cut with a stitched square die.
Next I added the images - Ike's Poe Raven freebie, Teri Sherman's tombstone (Delicious Doodles) and- of course - Leigh's Oddleigh Edgar Allan Poe coloured with Copics and cut out.

This time I added the page with a scrap of grey ribbon rather than the metal rings.
I printed a calendar page and added this on a rectangle of the purple card, distressed with 'Victorian Velvet'.


I will add this post to the linky!

Happy Crafting!
