Christmas Tree Advent Calendar

I made this advent calendar using Anne'sTree Die. I thought for a while on how exactly I wanted it to come together. I knew I wanted it to open but it couldn't be too large as it needed to fit behind the tree die.

I made the calendar with heavy weight chipboard and created the drawers with card stock. The drawers are 1" cubes.

After making the calendar I embellished the Tree Die and glued it right on top of the calendar so it would open perfectly. I also used lace for a hinge so it would be a nice soft look.

I used Anne's Paper Creations

Some beautiful die-cuts from Lindy's Stamp Gang

Frostbitten Fuschia  from the new Winter Wonderland starburst spray set by Lindy's Stamp Gang

Mistletoe Sophie & Lucky Ornament

I am Guest designer for Sweet Nothings Stamp Co this month and would like to share

a fun and easy ornament I created.

I'm not good at coloring and my daughter has lost most of my markers so I had to improvise with some gel & glitter pens but I think it turned out cute.

First I printed out the Mistletoe Sophie & Lucky digi at 2"x3" then colored, cut it out, glue it to a wire, then curled the image so it would fit in the ornament.

I also used some hot glue and diamond dust to create a frosty ice look. I just drizzled hot glue around the inside bottom, sides, and back, then heated the glue back up with my heat gun and poured the diamond dust in the ornament and shook a little.

I added the hot glue and diamond dust around the front and sides of the ornament.

Please be careful with diamond dust it is made of real glass and should not be around children and animals!!!

I finished it off with some bling swirls and a bow.

I hope you like my project and please visit Sweet Nothings Stamp Co
