Christmas craft


 

Saw one of these mail box's all made up looking gorgeous on Instagram by a wonderful crafter named Vicky, she does the most fabulous things for Stamperia. Anyway, I wanted to have ago but couldn't find the link for the die, so made one out of paper first then cut the parts from some grey board I had, painted them all red 


Then stuck together with lift tape


Next up die cut the letter for the post, added some 'snow', I mixed some paste with glitter for this bit, added a letter to Santa and some little gifts cut from  Stamperia pad from last year.


Also added a little service notice in the front, had no real idea where I was going at this point so just went with it.:))

Its nothing near as good as Vicky's but I had to try and think it worked out pretty well, hope you agree.

That's all from me today, have a lovely weekend. After the gorgeous sunny week we just had this afternoon is clouding over, I have a stew simmering on the stove and it smells pretty good.

It turned out fabulous Janette, what a lovely Christmas project. Enjoy your stew, I have a chicken casserole in the slow cooker...the smell is driving Marvin bonkers, probably a kind of torture for him :))
