Holiday Countdown with Advent Circle Tabs by Jean Okimoto

Create a memorable display with the new Advent Tabs, available in black or white.  They’re gold-foiled, extra-thick and perfect for lasting keepsakes.  Hi, Jean here with a special project for the holidays.


Cut 15 squares from a turquoise 6×6 in the Lagoon Collection with the 1-1/2″ Square Basics die.  Cut a semi-circle notch at the top with a 1/2″ Circle Basics die or a punch.  Cut 5 each of the dark blue, white and dark red poinsettia prints from the Yuletide Cheer 6×6 set with the 1″ Circle Basics die.  Attach them to the first, third and fifth columns of an Advent set.  Here’s a set I discovered in my stash after many years of teaching classes at Impress.

Cut the two smallest poinsettias from the Petite Poinsettia set from the red Rainbow Reflections 6×6.  Cut the centers from the gold Rainbow Reflections 6×6.  Assemble the poinsettia and attach it to the box in the center.   The numbers will be attached later – in a spiral, ending with the special poinsettia and “25” in the center.

Cut 5 each of the turquoise pine 6×6 and teal holly 6×6 from the Yuletide Cheer set. Cut the semi-circles.  Attach the squares to the second and fourth columns.  Attach 1″ circles cut from the turquoise Lagoon 6×6.


Attach the Advent Foil Black Circle Tabs starting at the top left corner and continuing in a clockwise spiral, ending at the center.

Cut strips of the new Cranberry 8-1/2″ x 11″ solid core cardstock and attach them along the outer edges.
