Mini Notecards and Mailbox Tin

I actually stamped today!! Yay! It seems like it's been too long since I've done that! :D Here is a project I made for a new challenge that will be posted on the A Muse Addicts forum tomorrow morning (maybe today if you're reading this on Tuesday morning)!! The challenge is to make a set of mini-notecards and a container to store them in. I have been wanting to make an altered mailbox tin for so long now and this was my first attempt at making one!! It's also my first time using my A Muse Coffee Break clear stamp set! I've had it for a few weeks and love it, but just hadn't broken it in. I'm partial to my wood mounted stamps so I don't always reach for the clear ones as a top choice, but this set is too cute to pass up!!

It's tough to see in the picture, but I used a scallop circle Creative Candy clear sticker on the flag piece, some Crystal Effects on the cup on the mailbox to make it look like it's ceramic and there's glitter around the ric-rac ribbon. I adhered the ribbon with Sticky Strip and poured glitter over it to fill in the gaps where the tape shows through, I think it's kinda pretty and a fun touch!! Both the pink and blue ric-rac was originally white and I colored them in with my copics to match the project. The colors turned out brighter than I expected, but I'm still happy with them.
