Waffle Flower–Santa Suit Advent Calendar!

FOR MY GIVEAWAY POST, PLEASE CLICK HERE – CONTEST ENDS 11/30/14 AT 12:01 AM (PDT)!!

Hola!!

I’m back today with another project that I created with some of the Waffle Flower stamps and dies that I picked up recently!  I always wanted to create an Advent calendar for my kids when they were little – needless to say, I never got around to it!  So, I thought I’d finally come through and create one for my grandkids!  I think they’re really going to like it!  Inside each tag is a different holiday activity – one for each day leading up to Christmas!  It was super simple to create – here are a few step-by-step photos to give you an idea of what I did.  I’ve also listed the products that I used below!

Easy, peasy!!  It took me a bit of time to create this, but I’m so happy with how it turned out!  I think my grandkids are going to have a blast participating in all of the fun holiday activities that are listed on each tag.  I have to say that the Waffle Flower products really made this even more easy to create!  If you’d like the Silhouette Print and Cut file that I created for the inside of each tag, please leave me a message here, and I’ll get that to you as soon as I can!

Thanks so much for stopping by today!  To my U.S. friends, wishing you and yours a lovely Thanksgiving!  We’ll be celebrating with a few family members that are here in AZ.  I might even do a bit of Black Friday shopping.  Heeheehee!  Have a great day!
