Welcome to the annual Kit and Clowder Advent Calendar of Freebies! Join me every day from Dec 1-24 to uncover a little gift from me as a thank you for your support during 2024. Every single day will feature a brand new free colouring page for you to download and use for your projects. A new freebie will go up each day at 9pm AEST. There will also be a few extra giveaways and games scattered throughout the event, and don't forget to check back in on Christmas Day for an extra special surprise from me... trust me you will not want to miss this one! :) This event is open to absolutely everyone, so I would please love if you would help share the word with your crafty friends so they can grab the freebies aswell! If you want a post to share, try this one!). (https://www.facebook.com/groups/kitandclowder/posts/8471502609644600) Thank you so much and hope to see you over in the classrooms!(https://www.kitandclowder.com/shop)

The Advent Calendar is FREE for absolutely everyone to join in so please share with your friends so they can grab some freebies this festive season too! You don't have to be a class member either (but why haven't you joined a free class yet?(https://www.kitandclowder.com/markers101) :) Oh and if you haven't yet.. make sure you are a member of my free Facebook Community (https://www.facebook.com/groups/kitandclowder)- this is where all the fun is shared and where we support each other throughout our learning journey. It's open to everyone to share absolutely anything they are working on :)

Event links will be updated right here on the Advent Calendar webpage! You can find it again just on the homepage of the website, or at www.kitandclowder.com/advent(www.kitandclowder.com/advent) Each event will be posted in my Facebook Community a(https://www.facebook.com/groups/kitandclowder)swell so this is a great place to check for the duration of the event. While you’re there, feel free to share what you’ve been working on or leave an encouraging comment for someone who has posted recently - the group is open to absolutely everyone to share anything at all that you've been working on. We are all about support, learning, and celebrating our creative journeys together - not about competition or who is creating the best artwork.Being an active part of this community can boost your motivation, so come say hello and be part of the fun!

A new event will go live every day from Dec 1 - 24 at 9pm AEST (that's Brisbane, Australia time)(https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Kit+and+Clowder+Advent+Calendar&iso=20241201T21&p1=47).

A new freebie will be released every day at 9 pm AEST. Each freebie will be available for 24 hours, so you don’t need to grab it right when it’s posted, but make sure to download it before the next one is released! The only exception to this is the big Day 1 Giveaway which will be open until Dec 28 and drawn a few days after the event ends.

No, you'll only have 24 hours to grab each freebie so make sure to check in every day so you don't miss out! Find it hard to remember? Set an alarm on your phone for the same time each day, or check the Facebook Group (https://www.facebook.com/groups/kitandclowder)to get a daily reminder! There will be no catch up days during the event so really once a freebie is gone, it's gone. I please appreciate if people don't email to get days you've missed as this would be a very big job for me to do for every person. I'm excited to make the freebies for you, but I need you to meet me halfway in making sure to check in each day to claim them :)

Technically the last day is the 24th of December, but if you pop by on the 25th I may have a special Christmas surprise for you :) The big day 1 freebie will end on the 28th of December and winners will be drawn about a week after (please allow some time)

The Day 1 Giveaway will be open until Dec 28 and drawn within a week after the event ends. Please allow me some time over the busy holiday period :)

If you haven't adjusted your Facebook settings, being part of an active group can feel overwhelming at first! If you are getting an email or notification every time someone comments on a post that you have, I recommend to turn off the notifications on that particular post when you join in. You can do this by clicking the three dots in the top right corner of the post and then select TURN OFF NOTIFICATIONS FOR THIS POST. Don't worry, if you win you will be tagged so you will be notified even with notifications turned off. Make sure you DO NOT turn off notifications for the group as you will miss future events and admin posts - just turn them off for that particular post. If you find you aren't seeing posts from the group and are missing the events, it's important to make sure Notifications for the group overall are turned on. You can do this by just going to the group page, (https://www.facebook.com/groups/kitandclowder)click where it says JOINED at the top of the page, and then NOTIFICATIONS. Adjust to ALL so you will see Admin posts. And don't forget - the more you interact with a group by liking and commenting, the more Facebook thinks you want to see a group! So drop by and say hi - share something you are working on! We usually do weekly freebies throughout the year sothis will ensure you don't miss out on any of the good stuff after Advent Calendar :)

Certainly! Just head to www.kitandclowder.com/advent (www.kitandclowder.com/advent)each day to grab your freebie! Please send any entries for giveaways to kitandclowder@gmail.com. (kitandclowder@gmail.com.)Please note this is not monitored for questions though so I will not be able to reply to any emails there. It will just be used to add your name to the giveaway draw.

All of the images here are drawn by me using Adobe Illustrator which takes many hours to do! Sometimes I work with other artists to help bring you a range of styles, in these instances I purchase commercial licenseses for their art and then draw it up on Illustrator. For the purpose of the Advent, all of the images are digitally coloured to help save me time, except for the Day 1, Day 10, and final gift images which are hand coloured. If you've like some colour blend help for colouring them, head to my free colour blend charts for markers and pencils here (https://www.kitandclowder.com/colour)(or via the Colour Blend Charts tab above), and my online colouring classes over in the shop here (https://www.kitandclowder.com/shop)(freebies also available).

Please get in touch anytime via email at alyce@kitandclowder.com (alyce@kitandclowder.com)- I'd love to help with any questions you have about downloading or completing the advent calendar so you can join in without stress :) Remember that technology can be difficult when we try new things, but it can all be troubleshooted. Dont'just give up if something is tricky - please reach out for help always :)
