12 days of Christmas

Well it's almost Christmas and here is my families magnetic Christmas Countdown Calendar. (Honestly we have 2 one for each kid).  I did a class for community education a few weeks ago with 5 kids and one adult making their own and there's were so much cuter than mine. The numbers were done using the heat emboss resist technique.  Embossing on white paper with clear embossing powder and then choosing an ink color and a sponge to  rub in the color of choice.  Embellishing each number and attaching a magnet to the back.
