CardStock: DCWV The Christmas Cardstock Stack and Cloud 9 Harvest Holiday 2.
Really Reasonable Ribbon.
Used Robotz Cricut cart to cut "days til.
Used Christmas Cheer to cut Christmas.
Used Designer's Calendar to cut numbers.

I decided to make this advent Calendar for my boys.  Now that Thanksgiving is over, they know that Christmas is next and they have started to ask "how many days til Christmas?" over and over and over 8/  So, what better than to put this up in their room and they will know exactly how many days til the big day!!  I hope you all have enjoyed my project.  Your next stop is the sweet Jessica.
