Hello, friends!
Advent Calendar Extravaganza is -the- festive event of the season! This ‘hop with a twist’ was dreamed up by Taheerah Atchia and features surprise destinations each day! Joining in the fun with Taheerah are ONE HUNDRED special guests - each serving up some fantastic Christmas inspiration! Just like an Advent Calendar, you’ll never know where you’re going to be visiting next until you ‘open the door’!

Join in the fun every day at taheerah-atchia.com to see what special surprises await behind the door!
The sponsor for today's hop is Paper Smooches- my FAVORITE stamp and die company! I've also used this opportunity to join in the fun with the PS December challenge {Winter}. I've challenged myself again this year to create over 10 Christmas themed cards... so far I've got 5! **NOTE: I think I should challenge myself to send them out once I get them done😜
This card was inspired by a holiday gift bag from Target:)
The only way I'll complete this challenge of 10+ Christmas cards is if I make LOTS of CAS or one layer cards! Nothing wrong with that;)

Great cards - love the simple elegance of the Dec calendar card and love the cute penguin.
Hope you do send them out--they're absolutely wonderful! Very creative & perfectly crafted! sghess4451 at comcast dot net
Wow, someone has been busy, lovely cards all of them!
You've been busy & have made so many cards! I really like them all. The deer with the Glad Tidings sentiment is perfect because it looks like it's smiling & is glad to be in the snow. :) TFS your talent. I know what you mean about getting the cards sent out. That seems to be the labour intensive part.
These are so cute. I love the simple red Christmas card with the little gold tree!
Thanks for sharing so many wonderful ideas with us - awesome cards:)
Fabulous projects! Thank you so much for sharing your talent!
All beautiful cards; lots of inspiration for us to find here -- thank you for sharing your creativity !
And no, absolutely nothing wrong with CAS !!!
Awesome cards! I am in love with that adorable penguin!
WOW! Cute stamps. Cute cards. Amazing designs. Just adorable. Happy Holidays!
Great variety of cards! Love them all!
NOTE: I think I should challenge myself to send them out once I get them done
And here I thought I was the only one! #theperilsofcardmaking
I really enjoy all of these cards, especially the ones using the calendars. I don't see that often, but I think it's such a fun look. However, I think my favorite is the CAS one with the gold tree. That sentiment is just so cleverly made that it makes a great focal point to a card, and you added just enough embellishment to enhance it. Thanks so much for sharing your ideas! May this be the year of finally sending Christmas cards! :)
Love all these cards! I got some great ideas to try out today!
I love what you created!!!
Paper Smooches stamps and dies are so great ! Love all of your cards...fun, whimsical, creative...

cute cards!
adorable!
These winter animals are so sweet!
Paper Smooches products are so festive and FUN. Love your projects!!
Okay, you created a whole bunch of cute cards! I think you created the most of everyone on this advent calendar hop. That reindeer is so adorable and he's smiling! What does he know that we don't? LOL I also love snowflakes. I have a few snowflake stamps and some snowflake stickers. Someday I am going to do a card with rainbow colored snowflakes. I think snow should be colored but then that's just me.
The Dec. calendar is so cute and there is that snowflake!
I love the writing on the Merry Christmas card. My sister used to do calligraphy and this reminds me of that.
That penguin on the Merry Christmas card is so cute & festive. My nephew loves penguins and he would like that one.
I love everything that you did and thank you for showing us all of it. I also thank you for giving us the chance to win something. I hope I do!
I really like the snowflake and calendar page. I have seen the calendar stamps and stickers, but never could figure out how to use them. This is very effective. Add a little gem or sequin and you are good to go. Thanks so much. (Mailing becomes an issue for me, too. I would rather spend the money on supplies than stamps!)
Very sweet and fun card!!
I love that penguin!!!
so many cute cards, I cannot choose a favorite!
What wonderful projects!!! My gosh! The deer! HI LITTLE GUY!!
Very creative! I especially like the snowflake and the penguin calendar cards. Thanks for sharing!
