Hi!

Thanks for stopping by today! If you are a regular reader, thanks for coming back! And welcome to any new visitors. Hope you like what you see :)

Each of the There She Goes gals were assigned the challenge of creating a card/project based on a famous quote. We each were assigned a different set to use. My assigned set was Welcome Home.

Here's the card I came up with. The sentiment is computer generated.


I have been feeling the craft ink lately and loving the Top note die from SU! This card has a lot of similarity to this one. I've been wanting to try making a "real" window out of this door for a while and decided to try it out here. I have to be honest, it's not photographing well. Have you ever had that happen when taking a picture of a card? The card looks much better in your hand than it does on the screen? I'm thinking this card is not being done justice by the screen :)

Anyways, I used the set Welcome Home as I said. The house front and door images are stamped in Vanilla craft ink onto Basic Black paper and cut out with a Top Note die. The sentiment is printed with black ink onto Very Vanilla paper. I was sort of stuck working with black as that is the only kind of ink I had in my printer. The window was stamped again onto a projector transparency and heat set. The window on the black paper was carefully cut out with a craft knife and then the clear window layered under. The Top Note is on dimensionals as is the sentiment. A small button from my husband's grandmother's sewing basket that has a twist of May Arts ribbon is attached with a glue dot. The whole shebang is layered onto a vanilla base.

Thanks so much for stopping by today! Hop on over to Stephanie's blog next and check out what she's created for you to see!

Have a great day,
