I find these recycled gift tags great!
As well the round as the rectangular elements can depending on the season easily be cut from old Birthday, Christmas, Easter, Spring or whatever cards, or from matching gift wrap papers that are glued to white paper for reinforcement.
In place of the gift wrap papers you should also can use pages from old books, beautiful pictures from (travel) brochures or self-made or self-stamped paper.
And photos.
And, yes, you should also be able to make a coupon Advent calendar! :)
And then you can also embroider, doodle, paint, cut to paper flowers the elements.
And incorporate small beads or yarn threads.
Whew, my imagination rans riot again ;-))

It’s about time to make an advent calendar.
What about a self-made scratch off lottery ticket advent calendar?
Before beginning better wait a little, I will present more advent calendar ideas this week.
And check out the advent calendar instructions from last year, also ;-)

An advent calendar doesn’t always have to be a lot of filled boxes, why not simply mailing a card a day?
It is more exciting for the recipient if the cards put together form a poster.
Photojojo shows how to make a poster with 24 cards from a photo. I think that you can also use a self-designed Christmas card for an advent calendar.
And on the back you can write a nice, amusing or inspiring aphorism (apart from the address ;-)).
