My great friend, Stephanie, picked up some adorable mailboxes from Target for me to alter! Thank you so much Stephanie! I am only posting one on this blog until after Valentine's day because the other mailboxes are gifts. I made this mailbox by using the tutorial at Stamping and Stuff. The paper is by K&C Company. I thought it was so appropriate because it looks like postage stamps. I found the cutest little heart clips at Michaels in the dollar bin that I have used to put on the little flag on the mailbox. I used my Close to My Heart Stamp Set Solo L with Stazon Ink to stamp "love" on both sides of the heart. I used pink ribbon and everything is held together with Stampin Up Sticky Strip.
I took it a step further and made the 3 little mini cards with matching envelopes to put inside the box. I thought I might stick some candy in there because it is Valentine's day :). The little cards are 3 x 4. I used a variety of stamp sets listed below. I thought these mini cards would be great when someone wants to give another person a little pick-me-up for the day.
