INSTRUCTIONS

ADVENT TREE SHELF

Step 1. Paint edges and sides of shelf pieces in Raw Umber. Mix the Olive and Black paints to form a green to match the dark green paper from the pad, then paint the back and the edges of the large triangle piece.
Step 2. Cover the front of the large triangle piece in the dark green paper. Run brayer over the top to get rid of air bubbles and puckers, then cut away excess using craft knife. Cover the stand piece in the wood grain paper (with the pinecones and berries), ensuring paper covers the edges as well as the top.
Again, run brayer over the top to get rid of air bubbles and puckers, then cut away excess using craft knife. Glue shelves into place on large triangle piece, then adhere shelf tree into the stand piece.
Step 3. Cut out twenty-five squares from the multi-square design paper and set aside. Assemble drawers then cover them in plainer papers. Adhere a cut out square to the front of each drawer, trimming away semi-circle. Position gold number stickers on each drawer front.

Step 1. Paint edges and backs of all pieces also paint the long upright piece completely.
Step 2. Cover the snowflake pieces in blue or white papers from the pad. Cover stand piece in the Platinum glitter cardstock. After gluing, run brayer over the top to remove air bubbles and puckers, then trim all excess with craft knife.
Step 3. Adhere snowflakes to upright piece and adhere this into stand.
Step 4. Using the die cutting machine and the Decorative Bauble die cut two pieces from the Frost glitter cardstock and two from the Platinum. Tie organza ribbon to the top holes on baubles. Adhere three to the centres of snowflakes and adhere the fourth to the stand. Position a phrase sticker strip to the stand, then embellish with sparklets.

Step 1. Use red patterned page as your background. Cut cream script paper slightly, trimming 1cm (1/2")from the upper and right edges only, and adhere, centred, to page. Position the large pinecones sticker design across the lower edge of the page. Cut out the Santa design from the second sheet and use foam tape to adhere over background design.
Step 2. Double matte a photograph using red paper and white glitter cardstock. Slip a paper clip over the upper left corner, then adhere to centre of page with foam tape. Cut out six of the squares from DEC 25TH, then trim these down to 3.5cmx4cm. Mat these using glitter cardstock, then cut out more elements from DEC 25TH and build pieces up into mini collages. Use a Chains die to cut several pieces
from Crystal cardstock. Cut these in half, then adhere across upper section of page as a garland, with the mini collages (adhered with foam tape) disguising the joins. Clip tiny pegs
to the top of each collage.
Step 3. Use foam tape to adhere the large "Be Jolly" collectable in the lower right corner of page. Use a hole punch to cut small circles of Crystal cardstock and adhere by the upper left and lower right corners of photo. Position the clear sticker quote below the lower right corner of photo.
