Kara is back to share another clever design! Today she inspires us with a super fun magnetic advent calendar! You can watch the video below or click HERE to watch at our YouTube channel.
Thanks so much for watching!
Kara’s design is a gift in a card! To make this fun interactive card she used thin magnetic sheets. She cut out the sweater shapes and the reindeer with the Ugly and Bright coordinating dies.
The sweaters coordinate with the Sugarplum, Peacock and Mermaid cardstock she used Simple Stripes Landscape background. She attached the sweaters to the magnetic backing and then secured them to the card with glue dots.
Then Kara used a speech bubble from Open Me for writing out the instructions to use the interactive advent calendar.
This advent calendar is so much fun, Kara! Thank you for sharing another great video tutorial with us!

Design Team Inspiration
The design team has made the most amazing samples! We also have a video at the end showcasing some fun ways to use this charming new set! Remember to click on the person’s name to see all of the details! And leave these wonderful DT girls some comment love!
The sentiment says “tacky” but aren’t Tammy‘s sweaters awesome? She kept the sweater colors traditional while creating a neutral background for them to stand out. She layered Snow Flurries Backdrop over a snowflake covered kraft panel.
Lynnette cleverly layered her sweater-wearing critters on pretty Knit Picky Winter papers! It’s so cute and cozy and perfect for the holidays!
Marine created a brilliant interactive card! The reindeer can’t decide which sweater to wear to the party! But you can help him by spinning the acetate Reveal Wheel circle with two more sweaters from which to choose! In addition, she has freshly washed ugly sweaters hanging on the Little Bundle clothesline. She also included Santa and the missus from Ho-Ho-Holidays!
The greeting from Winter Scripty Sentiments looks so beautiful stamped in a silvery color! Be sure to check out the video below to see how to recreate this clever design!
Grace was also thinking about laundry, so funny! Her bear family is making sure all the Christmas sweaters are ready for holiday fun. Not to mention some unmentionables as well. She used the washing machine from Loads of Fun to make a shaker window. And then she added all the cute bears from Ugly and Bright, Snow Much Fun and Den Sweet Den!
Elena created a frosty scene for her festive bears in sweaters! She used Over the Mountain Borders for the landscape and the sign from Berry Special for the tiny greeting! I love how she illustrated the happy thoughts of these adorable critters!
Santa and his reindeer look so adorable while checking over the nice list! Megan created the shaker using How You Bean and Snow Globe Scenes before filling it with shiny stars! The sentiment is so much fun in Henry’s ABCs!
Kara‘s stylish critters are sporting some fabulous ugly sweaters! They are sending happy messages while looking absolutely adorable!
Latisha‘s sweaters are so charming in those bright colors! Her adorable reindeer has plenty of options to get him through ugly sweater season!
Caly‘s clean and simple design takes advantage of the fun knit pattern in the Knit Picky Winter paper. Her coloring gives these cuties so much personality!
Elena‘s gorgeous Giant Happy Fall card reminds us that these tacky sweaters are great for other seasons too!
And we round out our inspiration with another critter who is washing festive, ugly sweaters! It looks like he’s having “loads of fun” while he finishes this basket full of holiday laundry! Audrey‘s clever card is truly so much fun!
