Hi everyone! I hope that you all had a nice weekend. Did you do anything fun? We had a yard sale which isn't "fun" but it kept us busy. And it went better than the last one we had a few years ago, haha!
We had a few new neighbors move in on our street earlier this year, but we weren't able to welcome them to the neighborhood because of everything shutting down. So, a few weeks ago we decided it was time to introduce ourselves and say hi! I made these cards to go along with some cookies - the perfect way to make new friends. :)
I used the row of houses from the Simply Celebrate Spring stamp set, and I colored them with Copic markers. I also stamped and die cut a few trees, clouds, and the sun from the Happy Village stamp set. Once everything was colored and die cut, I started working on the background. I cut a piece of Bristol smooth cardstock with the Outside In Stitched Rectangle die and lightly ink blended the background with Lawn Fawn inks. I placed the houses on the middle of the white panel so that I knew where to put the sentiment. Then, I stamped the sentiment from the Happy Village set and a custom sentiment with Violet's ABCs. I then added the images with foam tape, stamped a few birds in the sky, and attached the panel to a white card base. Here's a closer look at the card:
The new neighbors liked the cookies and cards and we made some new friends! :)
Thanks for visiting today and I hope you have a great day!
