A little Christmas Holiday Cheer!

Christmassy Outgoing Postcards....

Hi EVERYONE!!!!!  Just sharing a little bit of what I just sent out to all of my local yokel friends and family (stateside, not international!)  I normally send postcards out to my international  postcrossing community...but instead I sent locally...why not?  So, in addition to the  "real" Christmas mail...my token family picture card...I thought I'd send out some fun stuff!  YAY for me!  :-)

I thought I'd do a flat lay , so you could see the different stamps I used.  Some of them are such cute vintage ones...that I hated saying goodbye to them.   But, I do hope they bring a bit of a smile on the receiver's face! Some of the stamps are not Christmas stamps (like the West Virginia and Alabama. state stamps, and the traffic light!) , but have a prominent red and or green.   

Hoping your Holidays are

Bright and Cheery

Love to you

Always,

Pam

Christmas Flip Book : Elaine Mail

Elaine Mail...is always full of surprises!

Whenever I receive a parcel from my dear friend, Elaine, I know it is going to be amazing.

 

She has blessed me with a lovely "book quality" flip book on the Christmas theme.  The "book quality"  is due to the fact that she used extra sturdy , heavy cardboard for the front and back pages, so it really does feel like you have a little book in your hand.

But where does she find the adorable charms?   She finds the absolute BEST ones!  I love the little "letter" charm, and of course, I love the "P" and the cool chain tassel. AND THE STAMPS!!!!! Look at those gorgeous vintage stamps from "Christmases long time ago..."  (do you see the effect?  I am breaking into Christmas songs just looking at the front of this!)   Oh my goodness...I just love it!

Here are the first pages...those 3-D stickers on the left are so cool...the are rounded clear shaker stickers!  Some very nice goodies in the first pocket.

 

A beautiful reminder of the "reason for the season"!  I love the page from a hymnal? Silent Night is one of my favorite carols.

The last page has her wonderful letter. 

The back side is as pretty as the front.  Thank you , Elaine, for such a gift to treasure.  You are so talented!

Hope you are getting everything done in this BUSY , Christmas season!  Stay calm, drink tea...and of course,

Send some GOOD mail today!
