Such a pretty sketch Rox. Love it. I wanted to be the first person to mail something to my DD at her new house. She recently closed on a house. She and her BF are in the process of tearing all the old out and putting in new. Oh to be young again! So, I wanted to surprise her with a card when she happens to remember to check her new mail box!......the card.............
I am using a new Clear Dollar Stamp Set . I stamped the house with versa mark on black cs and gold ep it. Colored it with some new to me Mica Color W/C Paints. So shimmery but very hard to photograph! Layered it with white c/s that I stamped my black square on the edges then sponged with tea dye.
Made my other layers with misc scraps in my drawer, layering them with black cs.
Put them all on a kraft card. Stamped the clouds, tree and sentiment clear eb them. Colored the tree with copic markers.
Popped up the sentiment and one cloud. Well, do you think she'll like this? I hope so! Hope you like it too......TFL :0)
Hi Sis! Kelly has a new challenge called WOW. It means Word of the Week. This week it is "New". So since this is a new house for my DD, I think my card qualifies!....at least I hope so.

So cute!! I love the designs you used for the bg layers! I'm sure DD will be delighted when she gets to that mailbox! My DS and DIL had the same problem when they got into their most recent place. They had a lot of work to do on it and were so excited to have a yard and room to spare! Congrats to your DD on her new home!!

I think your daughter is going to love this fabulous card that you made just for her! The colors are wonderful and I love the pop of greeen from the tree. The clouds look like they're going to float right off the paper! Great job with the challenge. TFS
