Dear Santa... - AUTHENTIQUE/UNITY Blog hop.

Happy Friday to all!

Thanks for stopping by here today - my blog is NOT a part of the actual Authentique Paper & Unity Stamp Co blog hop, but I have shared my project over on Unity blog today, and will be sharing it with my Friends with Flair girls ;)

I just HAD to play A BIT MORE with these gorgeous Authentique papers and stamps that I've received... and today, I'll be showcasing the Christmas stamps - Naughty or Nice with the Authentique Paper Christmas line: Festive.

With these stamps, I've created a TEA GIFT BOX back in July... so wanted to try something different.  I didn't use the Santa, 'Dear Santa' and the ornament tied to a finger stamps so wanted to create a project where I can use them!

So, I thought that it would be super cute to make a mailbox for Santa.  (Kids already asked me how I would send this to him... and my two younger unable to write looked confused as to what they were supposed to do. So I told them that they can cut out ads of whatever they want and stick it inside...)

I took the adorable MAILBOX file from SVG Cuts and embellished it with pretty Authentique things :)

Looks a little busy and may be hard to see the details here... that's why I have close up pics to show you!

I love how the paper wintergreens add so much to this project.

I had fun clustering these embellishments together... some are stamped images. Can you tell which one?

Here are the two sides:

...and the front flap even opens up!

Oh, look! There's even mail in there already!

The stamps I used here is from Naughty or Nice.
