Easy Envelope Advent Calendar

Easy Envelope Advent Calendar, in my post today at CutCardStock--so fun to make, and simple, too!

Envelopes, patterned papers, glitter papers, and Christmas collage images from Altered Pages.  I used the Holiday Postcards, Christmas Minibook, and Santa Santa Santa--there are tons more to choose from, and not just in traditional red and greens.

For all the collage images you need, plus the numbers, you can download the Altered Pages kit HERE.  Just add your own envelopes, grab a gluestick, and have at it!

Glitter paper = good.

a little beeswax experiment

Been playing with beeswax lately, and my first play is up today at Altered Pages . . .

The wax is a little milkier than I'd like, but the depth and the layers is fun--you'll find this one HERE.

teeny tiny tea wallet

SO easy to make, and a sweet little gift--the pockets in these little booklets could also hold???  I dunno, but these are easy to make in quantity, so perfect for party, shower, or wedding favors.

You'll find full (but brief, 'cause these are EASY!) directions HERE.
