My daughter had wonderful new neighbors move in next door and asked me if I could make a card for them. I pulled out my Simon Says Stamp Bitty Birdhouse die set and a perfect CZ Design sentiment die and stamp, and here's what I came up with...
I had used these dies before, and made a card with a rainbow of houses. Seeing as it was for just-moved-in neighhbors, I opted to make it more house color appropriate, and I wanted an A2 card. I liked my idea even better after I was inspired by the wonderful card made by Laura Bassen that I originally saw on the Simon Store website, HERE on her website, found when I couldn't remember if there was a "welcome" die, went searching and saw her card! I layered each piece of each house, and then popped up the houses on the card panel. I adjusted them on the panel to "fit" the layered welcome die cut. I added a sentiment stamp from a CZ Design coordinating set, popped up the panel on the card, and done! Here's a close up...
Love to have wonderful dies to be able to pull out, and make a fun card when needed! Hope your weekend is great! Thanks for visiting me today!!
Hugs!! Lisa
I LOVE this card, Lisa. The subtle striped patterned paper is fantastic. Thanks for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteI also love this card, where is the subtle striped paper from?
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful card, Lisa! Hope you don't mind if I case it. I've had the birdhouse die for awhile, but haven't used it yet. You've inspired me. Thank You!
