IC377 Antique Houses

Photo Details
Poster: Cook22

 Probably a new home card! I was inspired mostly by the first of the Vintage House pins, but I loved the vivid green in the second one, so threw that in too.
Base is just a 5 1/2" square stamped with CAC Gradation, inked up with Peeled Paint, Tumbled Glass and Stormy Sky in three bands, and misted before stamping (so it count's for Dina's MIX4 challenge).
The copper panel was done with a piece of chipboard, two layers of copper EP and one of UTEE to craze it.
The houses are Maya Road chipboard and various EPs - verdigris, copper, gold, clear and white. Foreground house is popped up on foam, and for fun I added a cloud which was on the desk. I'd really have liked to pop up the whole copper panel, but was afraid it would make the card very unstable because all that chipboard was pretty heavy even before adding in all the EP!!

have one of Lucinda's VERY early house pins. Mine looks a lot like this one, but it's in pink. I love what you did with your card, Sabrina. Really inspired!
