Christmas Countdown

mandag 17. oktober 2011

Mailbox

This is something I've seen around in "my travels in blogland", but can't remember where - I've even seen a tutorial to it somewhere, but couldn't find that one either, now that I needed it... :s
(If someone know where I might have seen it, I'd be happy for a link)
I made my mailbox with a window, as I want to see, and show, the christmascards I (may) receive.
I used DPs from Papirdesign - they have sooo many lovely christmaspapers now!
All edges are distressed with DistressInk WalnutStain.
I made the "Tildatopper" of a snowflakedicut (well covered in "Aleens True Snow"), a bit if tulle, and the sitting Tilda (coloured with ProMarkers).
Inside the mailbox I used a paper (Papirdesign) that had little red hearts, so I had to give Tilda red ribbons in her hair -lol
The snowflakes are made with a Magnoliadie and a MS-punch.
In the centre of the snowflakes, and somewhere around I put on some whitetransparentgoldish halfbeads.
I also used a Spellbinderdie, for the swirls.

Now, before showing the rest of the pictures of it, I have to tell you which challenges I've made this one for:
OLLCB - Let it Snow
Card and Scrap - Lag noe som IKKE er firkantet
Stamptacular Sunday - You Choose!
Sukkersøtt - Bretteteknikker

...isn't this paper with a santaimage just perfect for the side of the mailbox - LOVE it!



I'm qiute pleased with my creamy-brown (with a little hint of christmasred) christmascardmailbox - now I'll just have to wait and hope for christmascards to put in it :D

Thanks a lot to Gitte, who sent me the link to Pysseltagen, with the tutorial for the box :)
