December is nearly upon us and it's been ages since I did a giveaway, so I thought I would offer up 3 Advent Calendars to my lovely followers from twitter, facebook and over here on the blog.
All you have to do to be entered in for the giveaway, is to leave a comment about what design / theme you would like to see on next years advent calendar.
I should have it already finished but time has escaped me, so it will have to be launched mid year, in time for the Christmas trade buying.
I have some ideas but I really value your thoughts too - after all you are the people that buy them.
So if you have time and wish to be entered, please just leave a comment on here with your idea or theme - simple.
I will announce 3 winners early next week.

Good morning, well as my favourite thing is Owls then you got me already which is why i'm here of course lol. My next favourite thing is crafting/baking but i'm not sure that that lends itself to an advent calender but then you could say the same about Owls so there are a couple of ideas but other than that i'm all about tradition when it comes to Christmas and not chocolate advents. Happy Holidays :)
How about a shabby chic dresser with pretty spotty cups and teapots!
Some children in the snow wrapped up in big coats, scarves, hats and gloves would be cute, maybe with a snowman!
I love Christmas fairies and think a fat spotty one would be fun. The owls this year are wonderful.

Hi. I love Christmas scenes with robins and holly. But anything you decide will be amazing xxx
I love the owl one.Absolutely gorgeous.
Got to be gingerbread people and gingerbread houses :) Love the owls so cute :)
I thinks your designs are beautiful, next year I would love to see a design including candy cains, ginger bread men, gingerbread house etc. Thanks for offering such a fab giveaway.
Luv Sophie xxx
gorgeous work.
ummm ideas not already covered...robins. chrstmas puddings..
{Dab and a dash.}
I'd love to see Gingerbread houses.

How about Mr & Mrs Santa at their Christmas table groaning with food, turkey, Christmas pud, mince pies etc not forgetting some thing for the reindeers!!
Definately a Christmas scene with Reindeer, lots of Reindeer, all about The Reindeer. Would be the bestest Advent Calendar ever! Joanna Kate Oliver on fb, ooh_err_twinkletoes@hotmail.com
I would love to see a Dots and Spots take on the Nativity for a advent calender.

How about a scene with mice...as in `The Church Mice' in an old church pipe organ or something.. my other thought was a little bit vintage looking some skaters on a frozen pond with lovely minkee hats, scarves and mittens on them.
Hey Becky
Loving the designs you have but would also love to see maybe Father Christmas, in his little toy workshop with all the little elves working away with their paintbrushes, hammers etc. May be the first time Santa wears a spotty red outfit!? :0)
Keep up the good work x
How about a fireplace with roaring fire and mantlepiece covered with holly & ivy, tinsel, presents etc! or a night time scene with santa on his sleigh flying through the skies? or a beautifully spotty decorated Christmas tree? Am sure whatever you choose will look amazing! Helen at Kindred Rose xx
Wondering if you could use the 12 Days of Christmas theme(partridge in pear tree) etc but in your amazing style.....
Reindeer..... in a woodland setting, possibly at night with a moon? Or a gingerbread house in the same setting?
I really like the idea of a gingerbread house, decorated with lots of dotty and stripey sweet treats. I'm sure whatever you decide on will be brilliant!
I think you should do a lovely spotty Christmas tree decorated with baubles, candy canes, stars and tinsel with oodles of pressies underneath. It would look fab!
Hello, our whole christmas is around Santa as we have a 4 year old boy, so i would love to see Santa with a huge pile of christmas presents in your stunning wrapping paper with the usual christmas tree and babbles etc and there has got to be a robin there too, but what ever you decide i will be stunning.. x kerry
hey gorgeous! what a fab giveaway ;o)
How about one of the following:
*Snowmen having a snowball fight;
*A snow covered log cabin with Santa at the chimney, Christmas trees all around and his reindeer and sleigh on the snow covered ground;
*Christmas Carollers giving a Christmas concert;
* Santas workshop with all the toys and elves around him;
*Santa sitting by the fire with his feet up warming them after a long day in the workshop with a cup of cocoa in hand;
I have more ideas....but so do others!! ;op~
Have a great Friday...
hugs
hello gorgeous xxx
Oooh so many ideas you could do! Maybe a santa and sleigh in the snow with lots of presents stacked up... I do like the idea of a little gingerbread house too, that would be really sweet. Or maybe a traditional xmas tree with candy canes and presents, or a fireplace with stockings and holly, with santa's mince pie and glass of sherry by the side? Looking forward to seeing what you come up with! xx
Hi Becky
What a lovely giveaway.
I would say robins or penguins :)
Can't wait to see what you come up with.

I just love everything dots and spots and my phone was playing silly monkeys earlier whilst trying to post so removed those comments and shall start again using my pc!
I would like to see Christmas Robins with little Elf Hats busy making all the toys in a Winter Wonderland setting :-)
Its looking great by the way, maybe a santa in a spotty costume and some dotty elfs!
Tx
I love little rows of cute shabby chic dotty house all dressed up for christmas
Karen :0)
I always like a cottage snow scene or gingerbread houses.
All you designs are just gorgeous!!!! I love your Christmas puddings, with a red background and white polka dots! I would buy them all =) !!!!!
Ciao.Il tema dei gufi è delizioso..mi piacerebbe anche una presepe con angeli e pecorelle..
Grazie
Domenica
hi
How about reindeers made out of dots and spots and maybe some elves too. xx janine xx
What about using some of your christmas card desings like a robin, holly, stripy candy and christmas tree with ginger bread men and women and ginger bread house some funky stars that your good at like on your sticky tape and some spots and dots around the place. And some christmas bunting .
I would love to see Father and Mother Christmas's washing line with 2 hats and 2 suits hung out to dry :)
A dots and spots house would be nice. You could show xmassy things in room settings. Like stockings on beds, presents under the tree etc.
Love your goodies, so pretty :)
I'd like to see penguins and snowflakes. I love snowflakes!
What a fab giveaway. I would love to see Robins and snowmen on next years Advent. Although it will be hard to top the owls! Sue x
Oh those are gorgeous!
Love them!
I know its a kind of obvious one but I'd like to see a house advent calendar as I bet your dots and spots house would look beautiful x
Ooooh - gorgeous calendar.
How about a Dickensian style "Christmas Carol" style calendar, with the cute little windows in Ye Olde Sweet Shop and lots of snow :)
xx
omgoodness what a fab giveaway, i have to say for me the design would have to be cupcakes, figgy puddings and christmas bunting all together ;) xxx
I'd love to see a bird table in the snow with lots of winter visitors, or maybe ducks on the frozen canal & children feeding them. You could have a lovely spotty canal barge as well :)
@happyfox
Mmm, thats a hard one. I really love gingerbread men, although snowmen are a close second.
amandakirby10@btinternet.com
love this years calendar! how about a snowflake themes, lots of different colours and shapes per snowflake xx
Polar bears I love Polar bears, cute ones playing in the snow maybe wearing little hats and scarfs (spotty of course). The advent calenders are gorgeous and I'm sure whatever you decide to do next year will be even better.
Have a great weekend Becky
Big hugs

What a gorgeous calendar! I can picture a Christmas hearth scene with a fireplace and a tree, and the characters in it would be cute cats, being naughty - climbing inthe stockings, unwrapping the presents and stealing the tree baubles - or looking all innocent and pretending they had nothing to do with it. Done in your distinctive style it would be something to really treasure
I have found your blog through a post on Kandipandi's pad and would love to be included in the draw please.
Thanks
Nicki xx
another gorgeous product in the ever expanding beautiful dots and spots range, well done x
Some spotty penguins standing under a spotty tree! :)
Ooh what about woolley jumpers and hats, especially christmas style jumpers. Or winter wildlife (deers, foxes, badgers, squirrels, robins etc..), or socks (stockings).
They're absolutely beautiful and next year I'd like to see penguins :)
Hi there, great giveaway, thank you. What about christmas puddings, that was the first thing that came to my mind, some great suggestions already on here though, maybe christmas baubles, crackers, holly & ivy, candy canes, snow globes, christmas wreaths. x
I couldn't read all of the comments to see if this has already been suggested..but as advent calendars are mainly for children, how about children's traditional toys..so a teddy bear, jack in the box, stacking cups etc..all in a shabby chic spotty theme!
A tree with beautiful baubles and a spot of sparkly glitter here and there !
What about a row of old gorgeous houses and cottages along a lane, all different shapes and sizes and the windows and doors could be the openings for the calender...
Also, thanks for a great blog :)
I think a Christmas toy shop window display could work really well -lots of opportunity for flaps :)
(p.s Happy Birthday for tomorrow Mrs!X) love Gabsx
I'd love to see dots and spots gingerbread people! I think your designs would look fantastic
@MrsShilts x
i love the design you've done already but as a huge fairytale fan, i'd like to see a fairytale themed design... Maybe hansel and gretel's gingerbread house, or a beanstalk with jellybeans or maybe even just santa's grotto with lots of elves, fairies and fairydust?
Penguins and igloos, with flaps for doors... there would need to be a lot of igloos :) very excited to have an opportunity to win an advent calendar!
It would look wonderful as Santas workshop with lots of lovely spotty toys and books.
But I love all your designs, so maybe we should wait for what is lurking in your imagination.
Sue xx
Happpy Birthday!!! I would love to win the calender!! sooo cute :)
Well the hardest thing to find are items to send to warmer climates for christmas that do not have snow, etc. So I would like a design with an alternative christmas in the sun. I love these christmas stamps from the christmas islands (so this sort of idea)

well I love all your designs, I've got a soft spot for robins, maybe a wintery garden scene. x LOVE the owls. Catherine x
Wow! They are so pretty. I think santa's sleigh full of dotty and spotty gifts and of course rudolf :) x
