Day 6 - The Twelve Days of Christmas with My Creative Time

Good Morning!  Today is Day 6 of The Twelve Days of Christmas with My Creative Time.  You should have arrived here from Cassandra's Blog.
Today I have made a super quick Christmas magnet using Miss Emma's Whimsical Calendar Days stamp set and the XL Label die.  This could also be used as the cover of a mini album.  I used a coaster as the base.  Traced it onto my patterned paper.  Then cut the circle out, glued it on and filed the edges with a nail file.  Then I inked the edges with some distress ink and hot glued the magnets on the back.


 My Supplies:
Whimsical Calendar Days Stamp Set  -  My Creative Time
XL Lable Die  -  My Creative Time
Wonderand 8 x 8 paper pad  -  Cosmo Cricket
Festive Berry, Evergreen Bough, Iced Spruce and Tea Dye Distress Inks
Silk Ribbon  -  Papertrey Ink
Rich Cocoa Ink  -  Memento
Bells  and Coaster -  Michaels
Irock and Jolees gems
