I am heaving a sigh of relief now that I have a refrigerator again. It's amazing how long four days without one feels. Now that the fridge is back, we're dealing with ladybugs. If having ladybugs is good luck, then we are covered for months!
I thought I'd spare you today and veer a little off from Halloween. Mind you, it's one of the few non Halloween projects I have at the moment so it'll be back to the witches and such tomorrow.
I had to make a new home card for a client and pulled out this set from Papertrey. I've had it for a while and it hasn't seen ink. I figured it was time. All elements are stamped with Memento tuxedo black ink. The house is colored with copic and prismacolor markers.
Copic: R59, Y0000
Prismacolor: cool grey 80%, cool grey 50%, brick white, cool grey 20%
Fairly simple and straightforward. I need to start looking more closely at house colors, doors and roofs so I can mix these colors up a bit. I walk the kids to school every day but never pay any attention to the houses we pass. Being observant is not one of my best traits!
Hope you have a great night!
I really like this card. What a great 'new home' card!

Oh, I wish I had that same card to send to my sister. She just moved into her new home. Adorable card. Love the sweet and clean look of it.

What a great new home stamp! I have looked high and low for a good one when a friend moved into the area. This is great! It will be so appreciated!!!

I really like this stamp set too. The blues and grays are so pretty. I am in a gray mood right now--not sad, just loving the color gray!
