A card for my friend who is in the process of moving. I am going over later today to help her move her craft room, as her husband would not understand what is what. I used the houses stamp by KK originals. It was stamped twice along the front row and then I masked them and stamped twice again, masked again and stamped once, to make three rows of houses. I have been inspired by the very colourful artwork of several people whose works are featured on Pinterest especially Jodi Ohl, whose piece is seen here http://www.pinterest.com/pin/454793262342920454/
I coloured each house with copics and a few details with Tombow markers. Added a banner and sentiment and mounted it on tt cardstock and presto...done!

I'm sure she'll really appreciate both your help and this card, Ina. It put a big smile on my face - it reminded me of a little wooden toy village we had when we were small.

So happy and colorful!
Living in Europe, we're used to rows upon rows of little houses.
YOU'VE achieved a charming effect with the masking.
Thank you so much for sharing and I hope you don't mind if I copy your wonderful inspiration - I will definitely link to your original.
Thanks again
