A most timely challenge, MariLynn! I had to bring out my mailbox stamp from Paper Bag Studios. It was inked with various distress inks of which I don't recall. I cut the lid away from the box so I could 'stuff' some mail in there!
Wendy over on the Free4All told us to let it snow. And so I used the cool Stamp Francisco snow flakes image...there are about 8 different patterns...they were inked with VersaMark and embossed with Winter Wonderland ep. It is very glittery, but I didn't mind it getting all over the panels...cause that's what glitter does...there is no corralling it. Sorry embossing buddy!!!
I inked the sentiment onto a scrap of Basic Grey red paper, using a notebook edge die cut on the end. Isn't that thought simply wonderful? Our mailboxes are living breathing museum's...going out and coming in!
May yours be stuffed full this most wonderful time of the year. Be Blessed!

This old mailbox looks so real and love the way you cut it so it would open. Always a fun day when I see your talents in the gallery for the day.

Oh my gosh how clever to cut open that mail box! Love that vintage looking stamp, Susan. The snowflakes really do make it appear so cold outside Haven't seen real ones yet this year but have a hunch they are on their way.
