Good Morning everyone
A little new home card today using paper snippets to die cut some pretty floral houses
5x5" Kraft card base. I first die cut as many houses as possible from the paper scraps and kraft card. From the back of the kraft card ones i taped in the windows and doors so that they didn't fall out, I then cut the roofs off the paper houses and glued onto the kraft ones. After looking at them for a while i decided to help the windows stand out from the busy papers by drawing around them with a blue fineliner pen.
I took a piece of blue paper slightly smaller than my card front and die cut the memory box circle burst towards the top, i added soft gold glitter card behind to act as my sunshine, i added a greeny paper to the bottom to act as grass and stamped the sentiment with dark blue ink and adhered to the card front.
I then arranged the houses and adhered with pinflair glue gel. I also added a little die cut hot air balloon to finish.
I managed to make 2 cards with my little floral houses, one for a friend who is settling into her new home and one for my box.
This is the pile of scraps i had left from making my batch of exploding insert cards which i decided to make an effort and use before moving on. For these 2 new home cards I just took the papers with pink & purple flowers.
Items Used :
Memory box circle burst die
Memory box balloon die
House dies
Clearly besotted sentiment stamp
Crafters companion gold glitter card
Make&create paper pad from the works 'vintage floral'
