Simply B Stamps 13 days of Halloween challenge 2

So who is ready for challenge number 2 then??

I just want to say we had some amazing entries for challenge 1 and I am sooooooooooo looking forward to seeing what you do for this and the up and coming challenges!

This challenge is ........

Witches Brew

Create something witch related.....
there are some fantastic examples on the SCC blog made by the DT again.
And here is mine


I altered a diary and made it into a 
BOOK OF SHADOWS.

For those of you who don't know, a book of shadows is where a witch would write down all her spells and potions.  No self respecting witch is without one!!

I covered the diary in strips of brown wrapping paper after distressing them a bit with my Tim Holtz distress inks, I also used his grunge board shapes for the decorations and lock.
The image is the stunning 'Beatrix the Witch' from the Halloween Steampunks.

So what will you make?

I would like to enter this into the following challenges.
