Location, Location, Location


As any realtor will tell you - it's location, location, location - and this summery bright cottage is no exception.   It's happily surrounded by big bright flowers in a sunny garden.

Jean Okimoto here - and I couldn't resist sharing another card featuring this great stamp with another ColorBox Multi-Color Pigment Inkpad.  It's the Primary color set - a rainbow of Canary, Orange, Scarlet, Cyan and Fresh Green.


Stamp the house on natural cardstock, emboss it with detail clear powder and cut it out.  Stamp in.circle me several times on natural cardstock with Primary, and emboss the images.  Cut out pieces of the print for the fence, windows, door and the top of the house.  Ink them with the Archival Dye Inks.  Stamp the house on the Beautiful Daydreams print with Espresso and emboss it.  This provides an extra outline - just in case the scissors slip when cutting the house out of natural cardstock.  

Attach the house to the background, trim the background to fit onto a 5"x7 " card.  Round the top corners and ink the edges with Coral.  Brush Shamrock, Majestic and Mystified Smooch Glitz onto the flowers and butterfly.

  1. How adorable! Love the bright colors and the background is delightful! I almost expect a cheery little sprite to peek her head from behind the fence!!! TFS!
