[Easy downloads] Free Advent Calendar -- Days 11, 12, 13, 14, and 15 inside!

Published 4 months ago • 2 min read

Hey friend!
​
One of you said in an email, "the tech be 'tech'n" about the forever glitchy Advent Calendar page -- and I had to laugh (so I don't cry) because it's so true! This year has been one for the BOOKS for this Advent calendar (and it rivals the one where my entire house got flooded in the middle of December!) because of these tech issues -- including my ENTIRE website crashing this morning!
​
I don't want to jinx it, but I THINK things are working now. . . but just in case it's not, I wanted to send out the last few freebies for you to download directly -- no need to mess around with the Advent page if it's not loading right with you! Check below for those links!

​
​The All Access Vault- An Update!

​
I'm also having a sale on the All Access Vault for the duration of the Advent Calendar! Check it out if you want access to everything I've ever made (and will make! Yep! future access too!) for one low price! (use code ADVENT2025) Thank you to those who have purchased the Vault already -- it's purchases like this-- as well as other items from my shop-- that make the free advent calendar possible, especially with all of the tech issues!
​
​AND --Just in case you missed it - - In the spirit of Advent surprises… I added a little bonus gift: the next 5 4 3 new Vault members get to be a Guest Art Director for my next kit. Think: your dream color palette → turned into a real product.
​ Claim one of the spots before they are all gone! Hit reply if you have questions about this or want more info about a payment plan!
​
​Another note about the Vault: After December 25th, the All Access Vault will be closing again, because I've got some FUN new exclusive things I'm cooking up for Vault members! Get in before Christmas so you don't miss out!

Now! Onto those freebies!​
​

Scrappy love,
Allie

Hi friend, One of the things I’ve always loved about scrapbooking is that it doesn’t just create something pretty… …it creates something meaningful. A scrapbook can capture memories in a way that photos on a phone just can’t. And one of my favorite ways to use scrapbooking is actually as a gift. For birthdays. For grandparents. For graduations. For milestone moments. A scrapbook gift is one of those things people tend to keep forever. That’s why I recorded a short class called Giving...

Hi friend, Can we talk about something for a second? The average scrapbooker or crafter probably has… a lot of supplies. (I know I certainly do! In the midst of a complete clean out and overhaul because I have TOO MUCH) Paper. Stickers. Embossing powders. Half-used kits. Things we bought because they were pretty and inspiring. And then sometimes we sit down to create and think… “Why do I have all of this and still feel stuck?” That’s actually why I created the Use Your Stash class. Instead of...

Hi friend, I was digging through some old project folders today (#springcleaning) and had one of those moments where you realize… “Oh right. I made that. And oh wow, that's good!" 😅 Over the years I’ve recorded quite a few creative classes for summits and special projects, and a couple of them never really got a proper release in my shop. So I decided to do something simple & fun this weekend... I added two of the classes to the shop and put them on sale for only $6 each. Normally they’re...
