Christmas Post Box


 I'm back again with my second DT card for today, this one is for our July Challenge at 

Crafty Calendar

our fabulous sponsor for this month is Sheepski Designs, the theme is Add A Sentiment.

 I chose to use a lovely traditional image, Christmas Post Box , which I enjoyed colouring with  my markers, and inserted into a simple die cut and embossed frame.

There's more inspiration over at Crafty Calendar so please do hop over and see what my teamies have been up to this month, you can join in with anything you choose as long as you add a sentiment.

Thanks for visiting today

Chris

  3. Lovely clean cut lines to the Christmas card Chris, the Robin really pops against the white. The second one is very magical and what a lovely shape as well.
