Advent Calendar 2011

On page 36 of the Stampin' Up! Holiday Mini Catalogue there is a super stunning Advent Calendar made using the new Peekaboo Frames Bigz L Die (page 36, Item 124587, $40.95) and the 25 & Counting stamp set (page 37, Item 123792 - $54.95 Wood; 123794 - $40.95 CM).  Today I completed my version of the Advent Calendar.  I tried to keep to what was done in the catalogue, but had to make a few minor changes because I did not have some items......





I mounted them on a 12x12 piece of Textured Very Vanilla Cardstock, then adhered that to a 12x12 artist canvas.  I wrapped some 5/8" Early Espresso Satin Ribbon around the edge (can't see it on these pictures).  A lot of work, but really worth it.  Now to decide if I want to make some for Christmas Craft Fairs!!!
Happy Stampin' .......

Such a great idea! And I love using canvases for "other" ideas. TFS

So what sort of treat fits under the peekaboo frames? Is there room to put little candies or do you only have room to put perhaps a stamped holiday image?
