I was trying to finish the remnants of my Merry & Bright collection and thought I could pull out the Parcel & Post Mailbox dies and make a Christmas version of it, giving me at the same time the chance to bring the Glimmer Hot Foil System back out. I combined Real Red and Cherry Cobbler cardstock to create the mailbox and I foiled my sentiment in Champagne foil in the centre.
To fill the mailbox, I used the foliage from this die set, but also added some elements from the Sealed Squiggles and Sealed Holiday Squiggles die sets, done in metallic paper. I did the little letter out of Warm White cardstock and went back to the Wise Owl die set to borrow the wax seal for it, which looks incredibly cute done in red foil cardstock.
On the envelope, I basically used all of my remaining sentiment stickers to create a little holiday border.
