Advent Calendar

So, I admit it: I have become a Pinterest Addict! I spend at least 1-2 hours on there almost every day, re-pinning and like-ing so many wonderful ideas for Christmas, kids stuff, home decor, recipes, funny/inspirational quotes, or so much more!
I've always wanted to have more than one Christmas Countdown in my decorations. Ideally, I'd like to have 3, as I have 3 boys. That way they can choose to either each take care of one, or alternate each night between the three. So, when I saw this one on Pinterest: http://eighteen25.blogspot.com/2010/11/christmas-advents-countdown-clipboard.html  I KNEW I had to try it out!

I had some Christmas papers from last year I hadn't used yet (I rarely scrapbook Christmas pictures-it's so hard to narrow it down and I don't want to fill a whole album, and I have no where to store mini ones!) I knew they would be great for this. I used the 3 Bugs In A Rug North Pole papers, Making Memories foam stamps, white and black tole paints and Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Denim. The whole thing went together fairly quickly!
