Die Elefantenkarte ist ganz bezaubernd! Ich bin auch ganz vernarrt in diese süßen Elefantenstempel, die gerade überall zu kriegen sind, aber ich halte mich tapfer zurück. Und die Weihnachtskarte ist megagenial. Was für ein toller Weihnachtsmann! Danke für's Verlinken bei der Stempelküche-Challenge.
