I kept Susie's *Home Theme*, card size, and colors. I changed the color hues, stamps, and decorated the inside because I couldn't get the sentiment to work on the outside.
These swivel cards are fun to make. The card base measures 4 1/4" in diameter, so it should fit in an A2 envie. I popped the roof on dimensionals and made a door that opens and closes on the house. The heart brad is pierced through the organdy bow and through both base layers to serve as the *swivel*. Inside card details include stamping and simple watercolor on an embossed scalloped circle. Supply lists are listed below.
This design is also a qualifier for IC 137. Yesterday I made a card using the *outhouse* folkart print as inspiratation, but I felt that the green I chose was too strong of a hue. I toned it down a bit today. I sure have been using alot of green lately - that's a real challenge for me! Blah Blah, okay, I'm done now. . . Did I mention this project was so much FUN to do??? It was!
Thanx for looking and don't forget to visit Susie's gallery this week!
