Hi everyone! Happy Monday! I have a cute little card today; it uses the sketch from Inspire.Create and a theme from Peace On Earth Christmas Challenge:
There is lots of inspiration in the photo...I love all the red and white! But I remembered that there is a little mailbox in the Stamped With Love set that I don't think I used but once, so I paired it with some One Horse Sleigh DSP and came up with this:
I heat embossed the mailbox in white on Sweet Sorbet and added some shading. I diecut some foliage from the Magic Meadow dies and colored them with blends to tuck behind it. I added a Basic Borders diecut border from Shaded Spruce and embossed the top layer with the Wintery embossing folder:
The sentiment is from a retired set called Oh What Fun (I cut apart the original sentiment and added the "to"), diecut it with the Stylish Shapes dies and tucked it under a silver-edged bow. The final embellishments were a few rhinestones at the top!
I had an extra sprig of greenery, so I added it to the inside along with a Brightest Glow sentiment:
I love the cheerfulness of this! And I just realized this fits the criteria at As You See It:
Thanks for visiting today!
A couple of Eagles fans, just chillin'! And they won!
Enjoy your day and be blessed!
Sing praise to the Lord, all his faithful people! Remember what the Holy One has done, and give him thanks! His anger lasts only a moment, his goodness for a lifetime. Tears may flow in the night, but joy comes in the morning. Psalm 30:4-5

ReplyDeleteThere is a lot to love about this card Leanne! From the mailbox (in sweet sorbet!) to the texture to the ribbon to the green edge! But it's the greenery that wins my heart. I love how it really spotlights the mailbox and little letter! Fantastic! Thanks for joining us at As You See It!
ReplyDeleteSo fabulous LeAnne - that postbox is a real scene-stealer and I love the festive colour combo. The little letter and delicate foliage make great accents too. Thanks for sharing with us over at As You See It!
