Christmas Mailbox

Photo Details

Poster: susanbri

My last card for October's Christmas Card Challenge - it feels so good to have so many Christmas cards made by Halloween!

I used my new Heartfelt Creations stamp on watercolour paper and coloured it with Inktense watercolour pencils. I cut it out with an oval Nestie and made a red oval frame for it. Added some holly branches made with a Memory Box die, and then added sparkle to the snow and the holly berries with Stickles.

Susan, this is a marvelous scene! It's so heartwarming and I love how you coloured it. So cute to see the bunny and birds as well as the wonderful winter scenery. Love you die cut vines too! You got in under the wire.....I didn't!

Sweet and nostalgic Christmas mailbox scene, Susan....and so beautifully colored and accented with a touch of sparkle. Love the holly trailing over the bright red frame.
