Countdown To Christmas Dry Erase Calendar

Hey friends, it's almost the weekend!

Today I have this "Countdown To Christmas" dry erase calendar. 

Perfect for the kids to mark off and keep track of the days until Christmas. 

Everything on this is from the December Kit from Creating Made Easy.

The only thing I added was ribbon, burlap and a snowflake. 

Even the frosting was from the kit, it's called a Snow Writer. 

 I outlined the entire project with the Snow Writer then sprinkled with glitter. 

It had a snowy gingerbread effect that I love!

The alphabet was using my Silhouette and the Perfect Susan font from SW.

Happy Thursday friends, come back tomorrow for another holiday project!

Snow Falling Ornament Plus Instructions

Hey there friends, 

How crafty do you feel around the holidays? 

It's like asking if a polar bear is white right? LOL 

I created this handmade ornament using a Samantha Walker SVG

file and  CutCardStock paired with Clear Scraps acrylic. 

1. Using heavy duty card stock and SW SVG Oval Frame file- cut 2 in 2 colors. 

2. Trim out Clear Scraps acrylic to fit in between (trim 2 CS acrylic pieces). 

3. Adhere glitter to oner side of the acrylic piece.
4. After glue dries, adhere acrylic sheets together creating sealed glitter snow.
5. Adhere oval frame together alternating frame colors.

6. Adhere two frames together with acrylic in between.
7. Punch hole into top.

8. Add snowflakes and gemstones.
9. Thread ribbon through.

It's actually a heavy duty ornament! :)
