Clean and Simple 158

I've been kinda busy commenting on entries to "Less is More" since yesterday, as we are trying for 1000 submissions to our CAS challenge, since we now have over 1000 followers. LIMettes are trying really hard, I must say.
I took a quick break to make a card and this is what transpired, following the sketch from Clean and Simple 158.
The house is cut from a series stamped with my Stampin' Up wheel and coloured with Promarkers. The sentiment is a clear stamp from Studio G. The embossing is from the Lattice folder from Creative Expressions.

  1. What a stunning card - would love to know how you did the criss/cross embossing? Is it a folder?

  3. I love the little houses on that wheel and this one is my favourite (probably because I live in a narrow 3-story house.) The embossing looks like paving and goes beautifully with the house theme. Vx

    The sentiment stamp I used is by PB and I got mine from Handy Hippo.

  18. Great card Chrissie. What a good idea to use the image from your stamping wheel - another way of getting use out of it. Lovely embossing folder too. Sue.x
