Christmas Mail for You

 

Today I am showing you a festive christmas card. It will be for next year though as I already mailed and delivered all the cards for this year.

I used designer papers from Nitwit Collection. I added a piece of white cardstock on top of that. I then added the mailbox of the Greetery. I made that quite a while ago and it was still laying around so now I decided to finally make a card with it. I also used the post stamps of the Greetery that I embossed using gold embossing powder. I added some handmade flowers on top. The flowers are from the poinsettia set of Elizabeth Craft Design. I also added some gold glitter to the white flower. I die cut some envelopes from the Greetery also in colors that matched the card.

I did make the card from inspiration I got from Kelly Lunceford who made a card like this in blue with wisterias hanging over the mailbox.

I will be adding this to the following challenges:
Ruldolph Days December 2025 - Anything Christmas Goes
Christmas Kickstart #105 - Anything Christmas Goes
Sparkles Christmas #179 - Poinsettia
Girlz Creative Christmas #157 - Christmas Mail/Kerstpost

Till next time

Guest Designer Card

 

This is the card I made being a guest designer at Kaartje Inspiratie Challenge.
The challenge is to use red,white, blue and some orange. This year we are celebrating 80 years of freedom since the 2nd World War and these colors are our national colors. The red, white and blue are in our flag and orange is for the House of Orange. I did put 80 in the middle as I have a lot of elderly clients and I can always give this as a birthday card to one that will turn 80 right.

So I used a light orange panel and put a flower circle on it in the colors red, white and blue. I added some orange beads for the centers. The flowers are from Poppy Stamps. The large numbers are from The Greetery and I cut them out of gold metallic cardstock. I added some gold pearls in the corners for the finishing touch.

It was a joy to be a guest designer and feel free to join in on the current challenge.

Till next time
