For the next several days I’m at a Costco in Grand Rapids, MI doing some demos for the Cricut.  It’s a lot of fun and when you spend over 11 hours a day with the Cricut, you come up with a lot of fun things to make!  I’m going to be showing you some of the projects I’ve been working on over the next couple of days.

The first thing I made was a mini calendar advent.

How festive!  An advent calendar hanging on boxes and boxes of Cricut Expressions.  If I had made this at home, I would have hung them up on a ribbon using mini clothespins.  I didn’t have access to those supplies so I made do.  I punched two holes in the envelopes and strung a ribbon through all of them.

I used two different cartridges for this project: Wild Card and Designer Calendar.  For the envelope I used the Doily Envelope from ‘Wild Card (size 2″) and the numbers were from the calendar cartridge (square numbers size 1/2″).

It was as easy as that!
