Our realtor can stop looking now. I found the perfect little home for the Duke and Duchess.
I got this digi from Make It Crafty.
The peach parfait is embossed a well as the border at the bottom. The image is up on dimensionals and colored with Copics. Added some Flower Soft around the base of the castle and yellow stickles to the windows and diamond stickles on the water. The flower is made from plain white daisies that I brayered with peach parfait and so saffron then added the button with bakers twine. Dewdrops to finish it. Hope you like it and it will go in the mail as soon as I can get it to the post office. Might be a little late as my hubby is in hospital with pneumonia. He is on the mend now so hopefully will be home in a couple more days. tfl

Oh my goodness Faith! I hope your hubby is doing well....that can be rough! But hopefully he will be back home soon and your life can get back to normal! Sending happy thoughts along those lines......
Okay, I think you may have found the perfect cottage...its very, very, royal looking.......those two might want to be normal, average, but honestly, we live in the real world (just hang out in the teapotter imaginary one) and we all know they will have to live like royals! Ha! This is the perfect digs for them!
I love the background...the little glass ball thingys....its beautiful! I can't wait until Charlotte gets this card! I will bring a smile!

What perfect timing for a Royal Cottage and a Royal Card too!
Nice coloring on the castle! Like the EF and the DP! LOVE how you colored the white flower to go PERFECTLY on here!

What a great image to bring to the tea party. I wonder how long you would have to mortgage this little number if it was located in the good ole USA....lol It is perfect for Royalty. (and it looks a lot like the one down in Orlando) This is darling and you have colored it perfectly. Great card.

Faith, now this looks like the kind of "cottage" that the Will and the Mrs. should be looking at. Five room cottage, indeed!!
