You've got to love those UPS men and women!!

If you LOVE getting your packages on time, you've got to love those UPS men and women who deliver to us. My regular UPS guy is David and he's GREAT! He has even put my packages in our cab of our truck and locked it for me when we've been away several days. And he's carried really HEAVY Stampin' Up! boxes inside for me--even though they are not supposed to do that. He and I have a running joke about Oreo cookies because we both LOVE them. I used to always get him the iced Oreos that are only out at Christmas, but for the last couple of years cannot find them. I don't think Nabisco is making them any more. So anyway, this year I got him two packs of the Chirstmas Oreos, with the red filling. He told me yesterday he's already eatten one whole pack and I'm to blame if he gains weight this year (of course he's thin as a rail!). So when I saw this UPS fellow on Ellen Kemper's blog, I just had to make David a Christmas card to let him know how much I appreciate him! Here is his card:Ellen has the punches used on this little fellow listed on her blog so I won't repeat them: Blinkthinkink.blogspot.com. I think I used a few different ones. My fellow's shorts are made using the small tab punch, with the "v" cut with the star punch. And my eyes are alittle different from hers. I did the wording on my computer and punched those ovals with non-SU punches. All the rest of him is made using SU punches. The Stampin' Up! logo on the box was cut from an instruction sheet that came witih my new punches I received yesterday.

I think David will really like him. What do you think? Thanks for stopping in today!! Smiles, Laura

  1. He looks great! Glad you could use the idea - I'm betting more than one UPS man gets a card with a punched character this year! Gotta love our Men in Brown.

  6. Oh Laura, he is precious! Wished I'd thought of doing one of these for my postal carrier this year. Maybe next year.
