Advent Calender

By
Hi there,  Cristina here for ScrapBook Blessings Club to share with you Friday's project I made for Christmas.

First, my tip of the day.... have fun when creating. You don't want to feel overwhelmed with something your working on. If you get stuck put it away and start with a new project until you have a clear head and then go back.


Onto today's project...

I made this advent tree for my kids. I made one a couple years back and they move Santa around on a calendar until x-mas day but I would always have to buy the chocolate advent calendar at the store because they loved getting a treat each day so of course each little box has a different chocolate for each day.

Here is what I used:
  • cardstock: DCWV "Home for Christmas"
  • 3 in 1 clue, glue gun
  • Tim Holtz "Black Soot"
  • Martha Stewart - Aquarium Holly Berry acrylic paint
  • Kaisercraft Advent Tree



I hope your enjoyed today's project. If you have a question, please leave it in the comments, and a DT member will get back to you.  You can visit me to see more card/project ideas at VintagePink39 also, you can join up to our Facebook group: Scrapbook Blessings Club for more fun, games, inspiration, tips and techniques.    

Thanks so much for stopping by,
Cristina
