You've got Mail!
This little penguin looks so happy to be delivering the good news: "You've Got Mail". Don't we all love to receive mail?--not bills but real letters. Who does that anymore? Well, at Christmas time family and friends often send out "newsy" letters to update the relatives on their lives--not an easy task! So here is a little card to send out with your family newsletter.
He's peeking through the new Small Bramble Wreath (C1418) from the Winter Wonder collection and seems to be saying...
De-liver
De letter
De sooner
De better!
Just stamp the Message Penguin (C841), cut out, color with Prisma pencils and tuck him into a small slit cut along the lower portion of the wreath. I elevated the envelope to emphasize the "You've Got Mail" theme and to add dimension.
I also stamped the Renaissance Tile (G1404) with Versamagic Oasis Green in the background which complements the Thistle notecard and patterned paper from the Tinsel collection. Love these new Winter Wonder designs!
I hope you start composing your Holiday Newsletter and make this card to send with it.

Cute card! That little penguin is adorable! There's nothing better than 'happy mail' - especially when it's a hand-made card!

Too adorable and cute! The double fudge paper is fast becoming one of the favorites from the tinsel collection, along with vintage ornaments.

Really cute card! I still love the old-fashioned way of getting mail...not sure what I would do with all my cards if I didn't.

This is the most adorably sophisticated card! The Mail penguin fits really good in the wreath, what a clever and cute idea! I love the renaissance tile background, it fits really well, it looks like patterned paper, but better! :) And I love the light blue and brown combination, very sophisticated. Thank you for sharing!

P.S.-I love writing letters, and I have conveniently provided all of my family and friends with beautiful stationary so that they can write to their loved ones as well if they wish to.
