Heartfelt Creations - Holiday Mail

Happy Wednesday!

Today I have a Christmas card to show you using the new Ornamental Light Collection! 

The mailbox image is from the Holiday Mail Set and the sentiment is from the Yuletide Sentiments Set.  I added poinsettia flowers using the Petite Poinsettia set and matching dies. Everything is colored with Prismacolor Pencils and mineral spirits...my favorite thing to do!  I used the colors in the new designer papers for my color palette.  I didn't use the designer paper on the card, but it matches altered items made with it as a gift beautifully!  The bird and mailbox on the image match the dies from the Garden Romance Dies which I think is really neat, only I forgot that I wanted to die cut the bird to pop it out!

I finally purchased the Romantic Rectangles Dies that I've been wanting since I saw them!  These are so beautiful all by themselves!

There is lots of gorgeous inspiration on the Heartfelt Creations Blog from the designers!  Please stop by and have a look!

I'm submitting this to the latest Word Art Wednesday Challenge #42.

Blessings!
