Advent Cards

If you do not feel like making your own advent cards, you can purchase my design for $1.00 "Buy Now" button can be found at the end of this tutorial. After purchase I will email your PDF within 24-48 hours after purchase. Please  check your junk mail folder if you do not receive the email by then.

Here is a tutorial how i made my PDF cards fit my Advent calendar.

Supplies:

Printer
24 sheets of computer card stock
ruler
scissors or rotary cutter

Open PDF and load 24 sheets of computer card stock into printer. Print, make sure your printer settings are set to scale 100% so it will just print regularly.  After you print all 24, this will get tedious (cutting each sheet), but i made the cards long on each side, and at the end, so if your shoe holder pockets are a different size you can make them fit. If you bought the standard shoe organizer like i did in the tutorial you can cut the same way I did.

Cut three white stripes from both ends (or 3 red stripes)..you can use scissors and cut along the line:


Cut the bottom of the card 2 3/4 inches


If you have a laminator, that would be perfect to laminate these cards for many years of use... I do not have a laminator so mine are just card stock. 

There you go! Take your decorated clothes pin (tutorial found in other post) and your cards, and you have your Christmas Advent Calendar!
