Advent Calendar – Countdown to Christmas ~ Day 1

Back in October my friend, Elly, from the UK and I designed an advent calendar using a 24 cup mini muffin pan.  During December I will share one of the squares, with a brief desciption of each.

You will want to open each post, as there will be a little treat behind each one!  Some days it might be some virtual ‘candy’ or sweeties as we call them in the UK, other times it might be a card, 3D project or a video!

Each of the squares start with a 2 1/4 x 2 1/4 inch base with 4 little magnets stuck to the back with glue dots.  The primary colors are  Real Red, Old Olive, Smoky Slate and Soft Sky. Ink Colors included those above, plus two neutrals of  Tip Top Taupe and Early Expresso.

Tree from the Vertical Greetings Stamp set in Old Olive Ink.  Fine tip glue pen was used to drizzle a little glue down the tree then sprinkled with Dazzling Diamonds glitter.  The star comes from the Metallic enamel shapes embellishments.

Today’s virtual treat is:

toffee-crisp
