DT Ett trykk: Issue 05/10 - Advent Calendar & A early sneek peek

Each DT-member of Ett trykk, made a sample of a Advent Calendar in our issue 05/10 of Ett trykk.

I got the idea to make a Norwegian mail-box system - with 24 mail-boxes, and here it is :)

Size: ca 30 x 40 cm

Ink: Distress Ink - Pumice Stone to ink the edges.

Stamps: Lili of the Valley - "Build a Snowman" (Sneekpeek - image to come in 2011).

Colouring: Distress Ink - Refills.

Papers: Maja Design - Gammaldags Jul "Julbak" & "Pyntat o fint", Bazzill - red & white cardstock, Canson - Montval aquarellpaper 200g, sketch paper, cardboard.

Tools: Marianne Design - CreaTables LR0112 dies, Spellbinders - Nesting Classic Circles, Classic Squares & Labels 1 (for the top of the mail boxes), Quick Kutz - CC Mademoiselle Alphabet (numbers), Martha Stewart - Eyelet Lace punch around the page, small leaf punch.

Embellishments: Wild Orchid Crafts - Gypsophilas, Aster Daisies, Pearl Spray, Open Paper Roses 10 mm, 15 mm & 25 mm, Rosebuds 4 mm & Self Adhesive Pearls, Tattered angels - Glimmermist "Pearl" (on the white flowers), Shimmerz - Spritz "Mudpie" (on the red flowers), Stickles - Frosted Lace, Creative Cafe - "Lucky Oyster" glitter glue, Ranger - Glossy Accents, glass glitter, Kuttut - pearl string, pon-pon ribbon, Unik Hobby - sheer ribon.

I made the template for the mail-boxes myself, and each mail-box measures 4 x 6 cm.

The mail-box wall is made of a whole 12" x 12" cardboard, and the ridge of a half.

The "roof" is made of two stripes of cardstock measures 3 cm wide, folded in the middle,

after punching the one side.

Happy 1th December everyone!
