Hello Teacher Calendar Page

It's that time of year again as most everyone prepares to send their children or themselves back to school.  For our family there is none of that this year.  Our youngest son graduated last year and he's taking some time off before he begins college in the Spring.
 
Nevertheless I thought it would be fun to create a back to school project and play along in some challenges.  Remember a few years back when the CD case calendars were all the rage?  Well I decided to make an August page for one only to discover that I didn't quite have the correct CD case to display it in.  And now I'm on the hunt.  LOL
 
For my calendar page I used a scrap piece of paper and thought it would be fun to use the chibi pencil in such way that it looked like it was actually writing the letters.  The pencil is from the Chibi Kids as School Icons file from SVG Cutting Files.
 
The calendar I created in Excel.  The stamped sentiment is from the Hello Hello stamp set from Jaded Blossom.
 
And now I'm off to enter my calendar page in the following challenges:
 
Jaded Blossom - Back to School - Ends September 5th
 
SVG Cutting Files - Anything Goes - Ends August 14th
 
Jo's Scrap Shack - Anything Goes - Ends August 14th
 
DL Art - August Linky Challenge - Ends August 31st

Hiding in My Craft Room - Super Scraps Saturday - Ends August 15th
