A vday mail box for my son

I recently bought the cutest SVG v-day mailbox set from svgcuts.com.  The set has three adroable mailboxes that are SVG format.
Valentine Mailboxes SVG Kit

Instead of making it totally girlie, I choose to go with more of a boy theme.  I made the mail box base out of green glitter paper, used a toystory print for the accent pannels and then used the Cricut Toy Story Cartridge to make the Aliens.  I used CTMH stamps for the "valentines" in the hands of the aliens.  Because I cut the Aliens at only 4 inches I choose to draw in some of the smaller cuts (neck rings, belts, eyeballs).
