A beautiful monochromatic card which has un undivided back. It means there is no place for the text on the back side. This is why the sender wrote his greetings on the front. The sender also wrote two names under the children: Frici and Hilda. I wonder who were Frici and Hilda?
This card was posted in 1905.

I can say that there is nothing special about this card but of course I can't say this because it's cute and vintage - almost a 100 years old. It was posted in 1927.
This is an adorable scene with little girls who, I don't know, got Santa's bag? But it's not nice to throw things they don't want on the snow :-)

Hello everyone, let me show you one of my projects that I make for a class of students who were taking part in a charity event. This is one of the Hungarian classes of the European School who filled shoe boxes with toys, sweets, hygiene items etc. to send them to Eastern Europe for children in need. One of the mums who organised this action and who collected the boxes asked me to make a big card thanking the children for the participation.
So I made a really big, A4 card.
The text means: To give is a joy!
I coloured the images with Copic Sketch markers. I covered the globe with Ranger Gold Tinsel embossing powder and the snowflakes were added with white embossing powders.
What I used:
MFT Birdie Brown Pile On The Hugs stamp set
MFT Birdie Brown Snow Buddies stamp set
MFT Birdie Brown, Santa's Elves stamp set
MFT Birdie Brown, Happy Pawlidays stamp set
MFT Negative Dot Alphabet Die-Namics
Sizzix Thinlits die, Snowglobe by Tim Holtz
Copic Sketch markers
Ranger embossing powders (white, gold tinsel)
etc.
Of course, I joined this action too and here you can read about the Shoebox Donation.
Now this is really cute! A winter scene with children. So adorable!

And again a Mikulás, St Nicholas card because this morning the good children will find many goodies in their boots.
I have no idea when it was sent because the big portion of the postmark was removed when they removed the stamp. I guess sometime in the early 1940s.

According to the Hungarian tradition, during the night of December 5, St Nicholas goes from house to house to put tiny gifts to the children's shiny and clean boots. This is why, today I would like to show you a "Mikulás" card, a St Nicholas card. The text means greetings from St Nicholas.

Hello everyone, I'm here again with another card which was made for the Card Design Superstar Contest of the My Favorite Things. This one is for the Coloring Virtuoso category.
For this card, I got the inspiration from one of my earlier cards. Although I changed a little bit of my earlier scene, the main elements are still here. Well, I imagined a wintry scene on a filled where the children were playing all afternoon, the weather is cloudy and windy, and the snow started to fall. One snowflake even landed on the nose of the doggy. It's time to go home! But just one last picture!
What I used:
MFT Die-Namics, Slimline Starter die set
MFT Birdie Brown, Snow Buddies stamp set
MFT Cool Christmas stamp set
MFT Bitty Holiday Wishes stamp set
Copic Sketch markers
Neenah Solar white paper
etc.
