What is New?

Hello, over at Pixie Dust Paperie they're having a challenge to create something that means "New" to you.  So I have a new home card to share with you.  My Aunt just moved into a new place (an appartment, 11th floor- WOW!) and I wanted to surprise her with a card.
Since I don't have any appartment buildings, I thought this would do.  I am using an image from my stash, I can't remember by whom,  and a computer generated sentiment.  I used some DP by K & Company with some Offray ribbon.  The little roses were from some craft things that I found at our local recycling "free store".   I used my EK Success trim punch and some sweet little blue rhinestones to finish it off.
Thanks for popping by, have a wonderful day!

A New Home

Hello, I have a new card that I've created for a friend of mine who just moved into a new home.  I created the card with an open bottom so that you could see the ribbon from the top and also from the inside.

 I created it with just two colours for the challenge over at Scrapbook Sisters - Use 2 colours
For the top I used a Fiskars clear stamp for the flowers and then sewed buttons to their centers.  I added a touch of ribbon, some distressed paper from K & Company then topped it with a computer generated sentiment.  For the inside I coloured a cute digi from Sliekje's.  I matted it on some yellow cardstock over some more lovely yellow paper with the ribbon running through it.  It seemed lonely so I added another flower and a small pale bow.  The card still looked a bit to simple so seeing the yellow butterfly in the image I decided to give him some friends.  I used my EK Success butterfly punch and then added some pearls to them.  This card is to go with a basket of goodies to her home in the next day or two.  Hope she enjoys it!

New Home

Today I have a card that I've made for a new family that we've met who just moved to town.  I found this wonderful home at Broken Box Stock.  (They have so many amazing stamps there, be sure to go check it out!)  I coloured the image with pencil crayons and baby oil, then matted it on some Stampin' Up cardstock and distressed the edges.  I layered it on some great papers from New Seasons.  I added a sparkly green ribbon and tied it in a bow!  For a finishing touch, I added a computer generated sentiment. I hope they feel welcome.   I am entering this card in Scrapbook Sisters - Anything goes challenge.
