Advent Calendar with Cats on Appletrees

Hi Everyone,

no card today, but I am showing you the front of my yearly advent calendar that I make for my daughter. My son prefers the chocolate one, those are easy...


I used designer paper as background and die cut the windows with an Ellen Hutson die. I used a template by Julie Ebersole - you can find it HERE. If you are interested in more details - I have a photo tutorial HERE, that explains exactly how I made this. Just in case you have a few hours to spare to make your own advent calendar....
The numbered baubles are by Memory Box and lastly the animals are from Cats on Appletrees.

If you are interested to see the inside - come back after Christmas, I'll show it to you....

Not much longer until Christmas!

Happy Stamping!

Of course, I'm interested. The problem is the time which already seems to be in short supply. Still who could resist this fascinating and adorable advent calendar. You know I love the critters but the design with those numbers really make me smile. What a wonderful creation.

Katzelkraft - Stampotique Raven

Hi Everyone, Do you know that   Katzelkraft has aquired Stampotique stamps? This fun raven is designed by Daniel Torrente (#6314). I used an old background from my stashs.  I stamped the bird and colored it with alcohol ink markers.  I brushed distrss ink onto the background and added some pattern with the   Mandala Magic stencil  from Funky Fossil Designs.I used one of the border stamps on the left for more interest.  Stamped the sentiment  and doodled a frame around the sentiment.Added a googly eye to the bird and drew in some eye lashes.  The stamps I used are from the following sets: Spiral Borders - KTZ286,  Whatchamacallit  - KTZ276  (FRANCE) Spiral Borders  - KTZ286 , Whatchamacallit  - KTZ276 (USA) Hope you liked this - I'll be back next Wednesday with more Katzelkraft inspiration.  Thanks for visiting! Happy Stamping! Linking up with: Simon Says Wednesday challenge  - fur or feathers
