Love You - Mailbox & Mini Album

Hello! I've been working on a project using the gorgeous Love Me collection from My Mind's Eye. And today it is finished so I can show it to you. Making this was so much fun! This cute mailbox with a mini album from Maya Road had been sitting on my desk for a long time and now I finally found good use for it:


Hallo! Ich habe an einem Projekt gearbeitet, für das ich die tolle Love Me Kollektion von My Mind's Eye verwendet habe. Und heute ist es fertig, so dass ich es Euch zeigen kann. Daran zu arbeiten hat so viel Spass gemacht! Dieser süsse Briefkasten mit Minialbum war eine lange Zeit auf meinem Tisch gestanden und jetzt habe ich ihn endlich gut gebrauchen können:







Here is the album. I threw in some embellishments from the Lost & Found Two Rosy collection:


Hier ist das Album. Ich habe ein paar Verzierungen aus der Lost & Found Two Rosy Kollektion mit eingebaut:





I painted the cardboard base with white acrylic paint and inked the edges with distress ink.


Ich habe die Graupappe Basis mit weisser Acrylfarbe angemalt und die Kanten mit Distress Ink eingefärbt.







On the inner pages I used a small envelope die and some postage themed stamps to match the mailbox theme:


Auf den Innenseiten habe ich einen kleinen Kuvert Die und einige Poststempel benutzt, damit alles zum Briefkasten Thema passt:












I hope you like it! Off to create more stuff :)


I hoffe es gefällt Dir! Ich bin dann mal weg um noch mehr Zeugs zu basteln :)

I love that you wrote this in English and German. It was a much needed lesson for me but it was enjoyable because it was about something I'm interested in.
