I'm so excited to be able to participate in the Jaded Blossom Birthday Celebration and being a guest designer!!! Jaded Blossom is one of my favorite stamp companies, not to mention that Candace and Michelle are great crafting friends as well and a lot of fun to learn from. For my project I created an advent calendar. I've never done one and decided to do one with different activities for my kids and I to do through out the Christmas season. WARNING!!! A LITTLE PICTURE HEAVY BELOW! :)
here's a full view |
Each pocket has one of activity for the day. Out of the 24 activities,
6 of them are RACKs (Random Acts of Christmas Kindness). Every night we pick out the next day activities and if it's a RACK tag, we come up with something to do to make a difference.
Here is a closer view of the different sections of the calendar:

I used Jaded Blossom's Christmas Wishes, Christmas Candy
and Alphabet Candy to make the banner heading and to add the cute little
Christmas designs around the calendar.

The tags I made using the print and cut feature on my cameo along with Pretty Paper Graphics Christmas Brights Chevron and Strips and Christmas Brights Circles and Spots digital paper. |
On the middle section of the calendar, I attached this cute little bag so
that everyday the tags can get placed in there.
Materials:
Jaded Blossom Christmas Candies
Jaded Blossom Christmas Wishes
Jaded Blossom Alphabet Candies
Lovebug Creations Christmas Present rumple ribbon
DCWV Evergreen Stack and Merry Christmas Stack
