Advent 'Calendar'

Hello Blog land, I'm so sorry I've deserted you, but life got in the way a bit. However things seem to have calmed down a little now, so hopefully I'll post a little more often now.
Anyway while I've been 'away' I've been busy getting some more stock ready for my craft stall in November.

This project was inspired by a fellow blogger's post, thank you Jen for your inspiration. I can't remember where I got the link from in the first place, but remember thinking I'd like to have a go at making one, so I saved the page and when I had a little time to myself, I set about making my own template for it, which was surprisingly easy once a few niggles had been ironed out.


The holly and bow for the wreath was printed from Polka Doodles CD - Creative Christmas. As was the backing paper for the drawer fronts.

Thanks for your visit today.

Jane x

      Thank 'you' Joan for visiting and saying such nice things. This one was more of a challenge as I had to work out all the measurements myself, but I'm a glutton for punishment!
