Delicious DT post - December 06 2013

-
Hello everyone!  It's Friday!!!!!!  WOOOOOHOOOO thought this week would never end!  It's been a pretty hectic work time. Our company just announced the deal that I was working on which is that we purchased a total of 74 weekly newspaper from our competitor.  So that's pretty awesome.  Our group will become bigger... and well so will my work load lol  that's what happens when you are in finance...  but it's great news.  But it's kept me too busy to craft this past few weeks... I've only had the weekends to play.

So I'm here to share with you my creation for the new challenge over at Delicious Doodles Challenge.  Our challenge for you this time is Christmas or New year.

For my card I used the fabulous digi Snowy mail box that you can find here.  I totally love this traditional image!!!

I took out my Authentique - Peaceful paper pack for this.  I wanted to give it a more vintage look.  I used my large deckled rectangle and petite label 1 from Spellbinder.  I also used my Christmas elegance embossing folder from Sizzix for the corner part.  I added some Robin's dew drops.

Here's a closer look at the digi colored with my copics and some stickles.  The sentiment is from Create with TLC.

I followed this awesome sketch:


I'm entering in the following challenges:

  1. My time to craft challenge - Sketch
  2. As you like it challenge - Favorite digi and why, well those of you that follow my blog know that I really really love delicious doodles digis.  And that's why I was soooo excited to be chosen to be on the team this spring.  And this digi is fabulous because to me it really reminds me of the Christmas cards of the past... what I associate with Christmas from my childhood ;o)  That's why I love it!
  3. C.R.A.F.T. - Christmas
  4. Shellys images blog - Welcome winter
  5. Paper-crafting journey - It's Christmas time
  6. Add a little dazzle - Embossing
  7. Inky impressions challenges - winter or snow - well it's winter and there's snow ;o)
That's  it for this post but I have another one coming up so I hope that you will be back for it!!

Hugs

    Not sure how I managed to miss this one yesterday, but hey ho, found it now ;)
    It is a lovely image & coloured beautifully. I also like traditional mail/post box images for Christmas time, especially the red ones we have here in the UK :o))
