...is a penny that won't end up in the street! I was inspired to make two cards today. I loved these brightly colored house banks. .......here are the details....
I am using a new, this month, Clear Dollar Stamp that worked perfectly for the IC challenge today. Instead of stamping four houses, I combined them all into one. Making my little house bank very colorful!
Pretty much, I stamped my house, colored with copics, cut out and popped up on a ATC card.
Added the dot dot dots to show that it is a bank. Then put on my shiny penny.
This also qualifies for the CAS. The bling is my penny!......well, hope you like this......TFL :0)

Okay - this is so cute!! True story here - not one of my Anne Ryan's ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh true stories! My mom's name is Penny - Penelope - and she dislikes it!!!! ;) But - nonetheless - she is only 67 by the way - and by no means short on money - she will stoop over on the street to pick up a Penny for good luck - and also any change - she thinks it will bring her riches -sort of!!! Myself - I leave the quarter in the cart at the store because I am to lazy to bother to get it back - and also I think some poor homeless person can push the cart back and get that quarter.
Anyway......... so much for running off at the mouth! ;)
Fabulous and fun card!!! Love your fabulous and fun house - Anne Ryan could only hope to sell such a lovely home -espeically one with money coming out of the chimney!! Love it Kathy!! So cute!!

Only in CA do you find houses that look like this! Hmmm, a multi colored home. Very creative indeed, Nutmeg. Leave it to you. Anyway, I saw this link and wondered how I could create 4 houses on one card. Geez, I should have seen this to releize it doesnt need to have 4. Look how great just this one looks and with all that premium white space. Fun fun card.

Very creative - I wouldn't have been able to think of that. I love the fact you added the penny and this image is perfect. Great job!

I see from Deborah that it's only a quarter for the shopping trolleys in Canada! Here they are either one or two euro, depending where you shop - so I definitely get mine back.
I use my piggy bank for putting a euro in every time DH says he needs me to find something that he should know himself where it is
But it's not as nice a piggy bank as this lovely colourful house.
