Here are the photos of my Advent Calendar tags. I will need to make a base of some sort, but I'm not sure what the right answer is. All suggestions are welcome!!!
I'm thinking you might want to just look at them via the photo album located in the left margin. It's cover photo is the first tag (see photo below). Just click on the album, and don't let the thumbnails fool you - the design format dictates they be square in size (which looks like the top and bottom of each picture are missing). Just click on the thumbnail or the progression arrow, and you'll see the whole photo.
Spouse is watching The News Hour on PBS. This is where we get our news. If you're reading this, I ask you to do two things:
- If you own stocks, please don't panic and sell them. The Great Depression could have been largely avoided if the world hadn't panicked.
- Pray for our country, the world, and all of our elected officials and leaders.
God bless you all.
Brilliant advent calender. Love each and everyone of your days.

Hi, Deborah! Thanks for the lovely comments on my blog today! You rock!
And, just for the record, my DH and I are thinking of buying stocks, not selling them. Everything's on sale!!!

These are great!
As for the background, this comes to my mind- though it may not turn out as I am envisioning... Using one of those styrofoam 'trees', cover it with pretty paper or ribbon, and stick floral pins and have each little tags hang off?
Kinda like how Lisa Spangler on the blue tree in the center http://heroarts.com/blogs/club/2008/09/29/motivation-monday-deck-the-halls/ but big enough to accomodate all the tags.
Get what I'm saying or did I totally just ramble on an on and confuse you even more?

Congratulations !! well deserved !
I love the tags ..just curious how you are going to turn it into a advent calendar.
I thougt of somethig that might be fun for you and for your daughter as well.
Get a bulletin board, paint it in a Holiday color...add the tags with pins ...but underneath the tags you add a daily note ...with a daily treasure hunt to find little tidbits hidden in and around the house.... different every year and something to keep the braincells working every day .
Don't forget a secret note with the appropriate locations of all the hidden items..just incase :)
