Special Delivery...

Hey, hey!    

With all of the cool vintage post card and postmark stamp sets at Purple Onion Designs, I had to turn at least one of the new images from the Tofu and Friends Holiday Happiness collection into a cheery Christmas faux post card. I quickly settled on Tofu Candy Cane Wishes to be the focal point, coloring this sweet Santa kitty and his mouse pal in traditional Christmas colored attire. I then masked them off and added elements from the Vintage Postcard, Vintage Postcard add-on, Vintage Holiday Postmark and Vintage Christmas and Holiday Postmark sets. To decorate the postage stamp I masked off the edges and inked up just the top of the Christmas tree from the Very Merry Snowglobe stamp. The oversized Merry Christmas sentiment appears to be retired but I like how it makes a bold statement and balances Santa kitty on the other side of the card. :)

Have a good one!
