Twelve Elves of Christmas Advent Journal Class
The North Pole we will go... the elves we will meet... on this fun little adventure you are bound to feel glee.
We will make our own fun Advent Calendar, 12 days to be sure... The fun is pure.... the elves silly and demure.... in the form of an art journal, but we'll transform it into more.
Come join in the fun, and get your elf hat on... we're off to the workshop with our paint, glitter and heat gun....
When finished you can hang it on a tree or wall and flip to a new page each day before Christmas to find some fun instruction to do to put you in the holiday mood!!!
We will also take some of our elves and make little ornaments with them.
There are 16 lessons and approximately 8 hours of video content in this art journaling/advent calendar class. Every video is downloadable.
