I've chosen to have Simon the cute Boston Terrier delivering Christmas cards - wearing a snazzy coat, hat and scarf (from Magnolia papers) to keep warm from the frosty weather.
The basic cardstock is embossed and tinted by a  Tim Holtz folder Brick & Woodgrain and added door and windows. The door has a wreath on the door with a  McGill  Pine Branch punch.
I added a Memory Box Tessatina Border little trellis with  Martha Stewart Hydrangea 3-in-1 and pearls.
I used acetate for the windows - don't look too close - I should have cleaned the windows - eeek!!!
