sending Christmas Cheer pillowbox



This month's PTI Blog Hop is all about snow...  and I've decorated a pillowbox.  I used this week's Make It Monday (background plaid stamping), but had fun using embossing powder... and added a sparkly snowflake die cut to the little label (I started with the PTI notebook die and then chopped off part of it).  It's hard to tell but I also have white embossed snowflakes and some embossing paste, plus a vellum snowflake and 2 Mary Arts ribbon and some white picket fence distress stain.  A lot going on for a little gift.  And, for my regular crafty blog followers-- I'd like to make note of what time I'm joining this party-- fashionably late :)  Trying to work on unrealistic expectations over here and feeling slightly under the weather, so I did not need to have a hop project posted at 6:59am, be proud!

Oh no...hope you feel better and that you can get a good night sleep...and fast forward 10 days for your hubby to be home. Glad you were okay with the better late than never. Love the gold on the plaid!
