My Advent Calendar

Every where I look someone is making an advent calendar. I love the one that Beate did for her tutorial on SCS, and might have to make it once we move to our new house (Beate's Advent Calendar). But for now I needed one that was small, easy to make, and portable (since we are moving in 2 weeks). When I was putting up the Christmas presents that I bought today I found a bag with 3 Target Dollar Bin Mailboxes from last January in it. I thought these would be perfect, and I had enough to make one for each kid so there would be no fighting. Baker even thought they were great.

Recipe:

Paper: Provo Craft Holiday Slab IV , SU whispering white, and Real Red

Stamps: Alphadots (retired) and Perfect Presentation (hostess set) both Stampin Up

Ink: Real Red

Other: Crystal Effects, double sided tape, glass pebbles

Year End Teacher Gifts

These are the teacher gifts I made for my childrens preschool teachers. The boxes are for the 4 classroom teachers and the 2 name frames are for the director and assistant director. There is no stamping but they were still a lot of fun to make. I also posted these under the SCS TLC 115 challenge.

Altered Tins

I made these two tins for a silent auction at our church. That is if my mother-in-law can part with them. One is a recipe tin that I used paper from my local scrapbook store, Scrapbooks Galore & More! Inside I included 10 blank dividers so that the person who buys it can decide their own categories. The other tin is for cards and I used the SAB Simply Scrappin' Kit. These were both so easy to do. Usually I use Modge Podge as my adhesive but I used sticky tape instead. NO MESS!!!!!!!
