Oh how I love Christmas. It is hands down my favorite holiday. On of my best Christmas childhood memories are of our felt Advent Calendar. My grandma Elenor made it and there was a handmade felt ornament for each day. It was such a delight. Although I'm sure we weren't so delightful when we would fight over who got to put on the angel and the nutcracker and who had to put up the candle.
So, the tradition continues with a fantastic Advent calendar made from our favorite scrapbooking embellishments. The calendar uses a cookie sheet and each ornament is a magnet. I used the backside of the cookie sheet so you can store the extra ornaments on the other side. It was so much fun picking out all of the wonderful embellishments for this calendar-there are so many things to choose from! This kit is chock full of great stuff including a full package of Pink Paislee glittered chipboard letters. The only things that you need to finish this project is adhesive and a 1/2" circle punch. I recommend something strong to attach the button magnets-like Tombo Multi Glue (the green top).
This kit is available for pre-order in our Kit Shop right now for $28.00, we are still waiting for a few pieces to arrive before we can ship it out-it should be all ready to roll by Friday Nov 20th-so you will have plenty of time to put it together before December 1st.
