Advent calendar

Good morning,
  A good friend, who moved back to the States, Kimberley, sent us the most wicked card.  Sorry it is not Stampin'Up!, but I have to show you.  I'm going to work on it and make one for next year though.  I think it is so gorgeous:

  And now my next gift for my family,

    These are little message books I found in Coles and have covered.
Stamp set:  Office Accoutrement (retired)
Card:  Whisper white, dsp - newsprint
Ink:  Chocolate chip
Tools:  Scallop punch
  And tomorrow I'll have snowman soup in a coffee cup!
Have a great day..
