New Home on Kraft


My daughter asked me to make this for some friends. (Bet you cant guess their names!). It isn't an entirely original design because it was influenced by a photo she showed me to give me an idea of what she wanted. I don't know whether that card was handmade or mass produced as I don't know where she found it, so sorry I can't credit it. Of course, I hope I've 'made it my own'!

I made the house with the names and number digitally, and printed them onto kraft cardstock,

Then came the stamping. I used stamps by (deep breath): Mama Elephant, Flora and Fauna, Hampton, Hero Arts, W plus 9, Avery Elle , Papermania and Lawn Fawn. I'm thinking of contacting Guinness World Records!

Then I added white gel pen and the words 'New Home' cut on the Silhouette.

I'd like to enter:
Mod Squad kraft, black , white
Allsorts  something new
Tic Tac Toe  stamping, free, photo(the white writing and shading on bottom right)
Just Us Girls  anything goes

Beautiful! I love that you were able to mix so many brands of stamps! I think we don’t do enough of that lately. Have a great Saturday!

I love how you used so many different stamps to create a special image and design for this couple. Your daughter always gives you tricky tasks, but the cards always turn out special and unique.

What a fun card! The pops of white and black against the kraft paper are very nice and what a lucky couple to get a customized card! Thanks for joining us at the Tic Tac Toe Challenge!
