Good morning everyone! Anya is here today and I am really excited to share with you a new project I created using the Make It Merry collection! As soon as I saw the numbers in a sticker book and ephemera package, I knew I would want to use them in either December Daily or Advent Calendar. Since December seemed a little too busy, I decided to go ahead and use them to create new Advent Calendar.
Besides this project being a little bit time consuming, it was a pretty easy to create. I downloaded a Triangle Box cut file and cut two pieces for each box, using white cardstock for the bottom piece and a patterned paper for the top, alternating colors and sizes of boxes for each day. With this collection being one of my favorite releases this year, it was such a joy playing with these beautiful patterns and even more fun decorating each box with fun ephemera pieces!
I was really happy with the way our calendar turned out and must say, it is the most loved project by my children this year! They love opening a new box every morning to find a note, tiny gift or chocolate. Thank you for visiting Simple Stories blog and I hope you'll stop by again soon for more inspiration!
