Christmas Countdown #7 of 12 – Trim Your Stocking Advent Calendar

Happy November 1st!  Time to make an Advent Calendar in time for December 1st!  I opted not to do any stamping, and just used the Trim Your Stocking Thinlits to make mine, but of course you can decorate and embellish yours whichever way you want.  I hope mine inspires you to make your own and I’d love to see yours if you’d like to share on my Stamp With Elaine Facebook page.

Here are the 5 different ways I embellished mine.  You’ll find some notes and the die cuts you’ll need  for decorating the 24 stockings below, as promised on my video.

Notes: * Pattern #1 – Old Olive and black checkerboard **  Pattern #2 – Black and White Snowflake ***  Pattern #3 – Black and white checkerboard **** Pattern #4  (Reverse of Pattern #1) –  Black background with snowflake *****Trimmings:  Top, heel and toe

  1. I used Fast Fuse on the trims, glue dots for the smaller elements and on the tabs on the pillow box, I used tear and tape.
