New home

This is an image (by the Alley Way) I enjoy using and works well for a "new home" card.  I colored with pastel chalk pencils,  The DP is from a Teresa Collins pad - thought the word "stuff" was appropriate for moving!  The Kraft bg is embossed with a Sizzix brick folder.  The fence is MemoryBox; the grass by Die-Namics; and the key is part of a Garden Gate set by Marianne...The letters are hung from a bit of twine.

New Home


I really like this window die, but need to learn how to use it if the image is not quite the right size.  This is a bit too narrow as well as too long.  So I used a bit of the Martha Stewart trellis punch to create an edging - originally I thought of it as being like a fence around the fields - after I uploaded the card I realized I should have made curtains or drapes for the window!  Then, I ask you to use some imagination as I took liberties, and put some of the grapes and leaves on the window sill. This was also kind of a last minute thought.  Let me know what you think.
