I LOVE Halloween! I love this idea of an advent calendar that I've seen on other blogs so I thought I'd modify to my taste and style and now offer it as a class! I am SO thrilled with the way this project turned out.
I am offering this as a class on September 10th from 7 to 9. The cost of the class is $40. You will get a full package of the Halloween double sided scrapbook paper($13.50) and a 9x9 clipboard ($10.95) and all the supplies to make this cute countdown to Halloween! I am also offering it as a kit if you are interested in creating this clipboard! I will of course include colour instructions to help(Free shipping in Canada)
You are able to make MANY clipboards out of one package of scrapbook paper (at least 10!) if you want!!! If you are interested in making many of these clipboards for every extra clipboard you purchase I will provide the additional supplies needed to make the clipboard (ex. stamp the word BOO, the bats, the spiders, the numbers....)
You will make enough numbers to countdown starting on October 1st. (you'll have 2 ones and 2 twos). You will be given an assortment of ribbon for the tags. Each number also has a magnet on the back to display on the clipboard.
The colours in this scrapbook paper are Pumpkin Pie, More Mustard, Really Rust, Basic Black and Whisper White. I printed the "Days Until Halloween" on the computer. I also used the crop-o-dile to do the dry embossing on the bottom of the orange sheet of pape under the numbers (Remember you can click to enlarge pictures to see the details closer.)
I LOVE the Outline Alphabet. I stamped the Really Rust paper with the Polka Dots from Polka Dots and Paisley stamp set. Then I stamped the letters BOO, cut them out and mounted them on black paper.
Let me know what you think of this clipboard! If you're interested in this class please email me privately at [email protected]
Hey Heather,
Did you cover the final project with anything or just left it? I am going to try my hand at a Christmas one for my girls teachers, but didn't know if I should cover with something or not? Thanks
