Isn't this just the cutest card? I combined old and new Stampin' Up! products and here's the result. I'm going to send it to my son and daughter-in-law for their 2-year anniversary in April OR maybe before that just for some encouragement. They closed on their very first home at the end of November and it's a fixer upper that needs a lot of fixing up. It's a beautiful, wonderful home, that they will be able to grow into as they start their family. It's 4000 square feet! It's an older historic home and they are my favorite kind of houses with the old world charm and nooks and crannies that can't be duplicated today. The first time I walked into it, I saw exactly what they saw, the fabulous potential that this old place had once it had some TLC. I saw beyond the current disaster to what they could make it into and I can't wait to see the end result. I am so proud of them! Right now, they're working on the kitchen and all I can say is WOW! The cabinets are installed and it's painted. They're just waiting on the granite counter tops, so hopefully by mid-February, their kitchen will be picture perfect!
You can find additional details and close-ups on my blog at Cindy Coutts. Thank you for looking and God bless your day.
