Flip Advent Calendar

Hi!  I am sharing over on the Basically Bare blog today this Advent Flip Calendar using the Easy Easel Album. 

The album came with a certain number of pages.  I had to add extra pages for the advent calendar.  I used the mixed media card set and  scalloped tag set to add additional pages.  All the items area available to purchase on-line at the Basically Bare retail shop.

 Each day was fun to put together a mix of images, embellishments and lots of glitter.

 There is a mix of papers but mostly from Authentique and October Afternoon old and new papers.

 My stamps are Artistic Outpost, Darkroom Door, Momenta, Penny Black, Inkadinkado, Stampendous, Stampers Anonymous, 7 Gypsies, Technique Tuesday

 This is the Basically Bare Wings Die Cuts along with the Celestial Shapes on a Scalloped Tag Set felt tag.  I glittered it up with Stampendous glitters!

 One of my favorite Stampendous birds and Memory Box stamp!

 The easel worked well with all the extra bulk I built into the calendar.

 Frosty from Artistic outpost!

 This doesn't show off how beautiful this is on acetate.  The buck is from Indigo Blue.

 Love me my vintage Santas!

 Plain silhouette but striking none the less!

I will be sharing the rest next week!

Thanks for hanging in for all the details!

A Charming Mini Calendar

Stampendous has a series of Charms stamps that are perfect for projects where you need mini images.  They work beautifully for jewelry or mini cards or even to make a mini calendar. :)

I am sharing the first half of the year of a mini calendar today and the other half on Thursday. I searched on-line for a mini calendar that I could print out and use as the base for my project.  I printed it out a few times just in case you have a few mistakes. (of course I ended up using my extras)  The rest is a mix of stamping, and coloring.

The full instructions and all the months are located here on the Stampendous web-site under projects.  There are a ton of projects from the design team with lots of ideas.  The charms stamps can be found here.  I colored many of the images using STAEDTLER Karat Aquarell watercolor pencils.

I will be back on Thursday with the other half of the year.  The new release for Stampendous is now available on-line.  I have to say there is so many beautiful stamps in this release I had quite a few favorites.

Have a wonderful Tuesday!
