The holiday season is always filled with excitement, but it can also feel a little overwhelming. That’s why I decided to get a head start this year by creating a Countdown to Christmas Advent MemoryDex using some of my favorite Tombow products. I reached for the MONO Multi Liquid Glue to assemble all of the envelope-shaped cards and adhere embellishments, and I used the MONO Drawing Pen Colors to add handwritten Christmas quotes throughout. Pairing these reliable tools with a festive scrapbooking collection gave me the perfect foundation for documenting December in a creative and organized way.
Supplies:
- MONO Multi Liquid Glue
- MONO Drawing Pen Colors
- Scrapbooking papers and embellishments
Each MemoryDex card is designed like a mini envelope—perfect for tucking in little surprises, stories, or snapshots from the season. I love that this project can hold both big and small moments, from decorating the tree and baking cookies to watching holiday movies together. The best part is that I can prepare everything in advance, so when life gets busy, all I need to do is slip in the day’s memory or activity.


With the MONO Multi Liquid Glue making it easy to secure die cuts and layers, and the MONO Drawing Pen Colors adding personal details, every card feels unique and heartfelt. Bright patterns, festive icons, and meaningful journaling come together to make this Advent MemoryDex both functional and fun.




Whether you’re looking for a creative December project or a unique way to document your holiday memories, an Advent MemoryDex is a beautiful solution. It’s festive, interactive, and ready to grow with you each day as the countdown continues. By Christmas morning, you’ll have a treasure trove of memories to flip through and enjoy for years to come!
Love,
