Advent in November: Day 1

Welcome to Advent in November.  The inspiration for this blog post can be found here.  Information about how I started my tags can be found here and here and my Advent Journal here.

I took one of the tags I had already embossed and painted the tag with acrylic paint.  When this was dry I went over the embossed parts with white Pan Pastel.   I inked round the edge of the tag and stuck the number on.

The other side of the tag is for the Christmas story.  I used gold acrylic paint through a stencil.  I cut up the Bible Verse for today and inked the edges.

I glued the verse on, added some Washi tape and the number and inked around the edge of the tag.

Here are two sides before I stuck them together with double-sided tape.

Advent Journal
Here's the page ready for Day 1.

And here's the finished page with journaling and added stockings.

Thanks for stopping by.

What's happening?

I have been very busy over the last month preparing for two happenings tomorrow.   You've no idea how many emails have gone back and forth across the Atlantic Ocean.

Firstly there is a blog hop to celebrate the launch of His Kingdom Come, a new online community.

You can start the blog hop here on my blog or start at the top of the list you'll find on my blog post tomorrow.

Plus Pause, Ponder & Prepare starts and continues daily until November 25th with a closing post on November 29th.  There's still time to decide to take part.  An opportunity to make an Advent Calendar telling the Christmas Story and/or an Advent Journal.

I hope you will be joining me tomorrow.

Thanks for stopping by.
