ADVENT CALENDAR WITH SURPRISE BY OLAYA DE TACONESCONGRACIA

Hi guys!! I'm Olaya from the TaconesConGracia Blog ( @olaya_taconescongracia ). You have no idea how eager I was to present this entry. Today I finally premiere as DT of OhNaif !!! I thought I would be very nervous, but I have been collaborating with them since 2015 so I can say that this is the step that closes this relationship from years ago hahaha

For my premiere as DT of OhNaif they sent me a beautiful little house by Artemio and a lot of papers and decorations from the Pink Paislee Together For Christmas collection . A marvel!!

With all these elements I decided to create an Advent Calendar with a surprise...

The first thing I did was paint Artemio's wooden house. I gave it a first coat in a copper color with a chalk paint and a second coat with a chalk paint in an olive green tone. Next I filed the entire surface to get a set of colors.

The next step was to decorate the Advent Calendar . For this I used the number paper from the Pink Paislee Together Christmas collection and a lot of decorations.

Finally I decided to decorate the part of the roof of the house as a Christmas village. Puffies and house diecuts from the Pink Paislee Together Christmas collection, along with lots of little trees and stars as snowflakes, helped me in this process. The final detail came from the hand of preserved moss and a bit of artificial snow.

The result of the Advent Calendar , although it is wrong to say it, I love it!! But since I had a lot of material left over, I decided to give it one more spin and create a surprise... an album hidden in the back of the Advent Calendar .

For the mini album I used different papers and decorations from the Pink Paislee Together Christmas collection, creating a simple project where the protagonists will be the 25 photographs of the twenty-five days that the Advent Calendar lasts.

So that you do not miss a detail I have prepared a video that I hope you like:

I hope you liked it and you are encouraged to create your own Advent Calendar .

Regards!
