Advent Calendar Extravaganza with Taheerah Atchia

Hello everyone!

Today I'm here for a very special occasion - I'm joining Taheerah Atchia in her Advent Calendar Extravaganza!

She i so cool to create this event each year before Christmas and I can't be more happy to be a part of it!


Advent Calendar Extravaganza is -the- festive event of the season! This ‘hop with a twist’ was dreamed up by Taheerah Atchia and features surprise destinations each day!

Join in the fun every day at taheerah-atchia.com to see what special surprises await behind the door!

So now is the time for my today's project! I made a Christmas card using various supplies from today's sponsor Neat&Tangled!
What can be more cozy then a felt? So I made felt Dala Horses using dies and created a winter scene with the cover plate die and stamps.
I used silver mirror cardstock for my hidden background to make snow glow out of the card.
