Christmas Card Club "Feature a Postbox"

Good morning all.

Yesterday seemed to be filled with chores but I'm ahead of the game now so time for crafting today.

Mid November and thanks to our little Christmas Card Club I'm not panicking over my cards! Valery  (aka Mrs A) asked us to "Feature a Postbox" this time.


Another one of my specials...image from Wild Rose Studio, papers from Papermania, sentiment from LOTV and dies all from Spellbinders. Finished with nailheads from my stash.


I've quite pleased with myself this year....I've managed to use up lots of backing papers which had been partying in a drawer for a year or two along with my topper collection...I might have to buy some new stuff for next Christmas says she who has enough Christmas stock to last a lifetime!!

If you want to see what the rest  of the girls created you'll find their links in my sidebar.

    Hi Carol

    A great Christmas card .. .. like you I have been trying to use up some of the older stacks. We have to get rid of the old ones to warrant buying some new don't we? LOL!!!

    Just knew your little ticker at the top of your blog would cause envy .. .. why do I look at it!!!!

    Many thanks for your lovely comment on my blog over the weekend .. .. my news seems so un-important in light of all the awful happenings that are dominating the news. All very scary!

    Love Jules xx
