One of my favorite things during Christmas is checking the mailbox. Normally, it is filled with bills and solicitations, but from Thanksgiving to Christmas it is a surprise every day! I've already begun receiving Christmas wishes from friends and family! I finished my family's Christmas card yesterday. I'm using My Digital Studio and I will post it as soon as I can. Anyway, this is a sample of a Christmas postcard that I made for Tish H.'s workshop back in September. I like making postcards because it shows my beautiful children AND my artwork without having to sacrifice one or the other to display. This card was really simple and there is a pull-out for you to write well wishes without taking away from the card!
My new favorite colors for Christmas are Real Red and Soft Suede. It is very old fashioned looking and that is just my style! The horse and sleigh image comes from the Yuletide Christmas stamp set (116855). It is in the Holiday Mini and may not be available after January 4th.
I made a pocket behind the photo with Stampin' Dimensionals so that the pull-out wouldn't fall through the card.
To see more great ideas in person, host a stampin' workshop! Check out the calendar of events to find open dates for your private party!
