I love your mailbox I think it could be used all winter for many cards and love the style I have never had a stamp from your company and think maybe this could be the one to convince me. I find making cards come as a personal thing and our own personalities come out in our cards. It is beautiful

Grace said...

Love them both Lori! Beautiful designs and beautiful coloring!!!

Hugs,
Grace
