Whew, this project has been a loooong time in the making, but I love, love the end result!
After seeing Teresa Mcfayden's version of the cookie sheet advent calendar on her blog last November, I had to give it a try--TAC style.
I used many, many materials available from The Angel Company including: Mimi Printed papers, Ivory CS, Date Disks stamp collection, Christmas Checklist stamp collection, Whimsical Greetings stamp collection, Ava embellishments, Pallette Noir ink, Scrapper's Floss, and metal numbers from the Metal Alphabet kit.
The other items I had fun pulling together from all sorts of places including family games, good ole ebay, and even the jewelry chest. I am so excited to find a use for one of my Grandma's brooches. (It is right by the "Christmas" sentiment at the top). This is a brooch that I never would have worn, but kept because I thought it was unique. I stuck some stick on magnets on the back of this, and the pin remained in one piece, so I can use it in a different way in the future if I so choose. I think it looks great with the Mimi paper line and added that just right touch to this project. Grandma's birthday was in December, so it is even more special to have that momento included in this project!
Want to make your own? I will be hosting a class in November in the SE Kansas area. I do not have the date determined yet, but please email me (using the link at the top right) if you are interested in reserving a spot for this class.
