Advent Calendar Version 2
Added to Favorite
xxxx

Photo Details
Poster: CatHouse

 This is my second version of the Advent Calendar inspired by Beate Johns. I used small plastic boxes from Harbor Freight (exactly 24 come in a plastic container--how perfect is that?). Last year I used a Cricut for title and numbers--took WAAY too long to do, so I simplified this year by printing title and numbers on my color laser printer. The font is Showboat. Yes, I'm a lazy stamper. On the box top backgrounds, I used the swirl stamp from the Days To Celebrate set from Clear Dollar Stamps.

This is fabulous! How smart (not lazy) to use computer generated numbers. They look great. Love those little boxes too!
