It's my turn to share a project on the Little Claire Blog this morning and I've made a little Advent Gift Calendar using money envelopes. There's a step by step photo tutorial on the Little Claire Blog here if you'd like to take a look.
The idea is that you can little crafty gifts in the envelopes and then a bigger gift in the final envelope. Here's a view of the calendar from the end showing some Little Claire Dinkies inside the envelope:
and this is the final page with a sentiment from the Little Claire 'Snowmen' stamp set:

Hello, Helen,
ReplyDeleteI made an envelope album a few months ago for the photos of one of my travels, but I have never thought before to use envelopes for an advent calendar. This is a great idea! Moreover I think kraft is one of the best colours for Christmas, so I just love your creation!
