Advent Calendar Count Down

Ok I finally decided to join the Christmas in July craze. I couldn't help but make my take on Giselle's Advent calendar.
 I love snowmen. The only Christmas decorations I have in my house are snowmen so I made this count down to Xmas in my favorite color and decoration.
 I looked on birthday bash to see which tag Giselle used and found it and cut it in blue and white. I trimmed down the white one so there was blue showing on the top and bottom. I embossed the white one with snowflakes.
 This beautiful snowman is this Friday's freebie at Sew Many. Since it is a digital stamp I can size it however I like so I made a small and large, cut around them and colored them with my copics.
 I did not make my base very well and had to do some work to get it not to fall backwards. 
The tags fold over the back. I made a lot of mistakes making this and I am not the one to explain how to make it. I will work on some more later that hopefully I will do a better job on and explain better later. Thanks for stopping by and make sure to stop by Sew Many on Friday and get this cute freebie.
