New Home

This is just a quickie as I've been struggling to do something all day and getting inkier and inkier and still not getting anywhere, so I'm taking a break and I'm popping out to deliver a New Baby card.
This is for the sketch challenge at The Friday Mash Up. I intended adding some dry embossing and forgot all about that, so except for the tiny bit around the Nestie, it's conspicuous by its absence!
I'm off!

  5. Hi Chrissie, I really like your interpretation of the sketch. I moved the sentiment as well. Very pretty colour combo that goes so well with the country/home-y feel of your card. Thanks for joining the challenge at the Friday Mashup. Hope to see you playing along with us again soon.

  6. This is a very stylish card, great colours and the design suits from 'country cottage' to 'town house' and anything in between.

  8. You're right ...sometimes it's just best to take a breather, if only for your own sanity!
    I bet it all comes together afterwards :)

  9. Taking a break really helps refuel those ideas so it's never a bad idea. This came out great... I love the colors you used. And a great Country feel too it. That's what we love about our challenges.. You can do them together or separately. Never worry if you forget one of the elements! It's a great "Mashup Card" . Thanks so much for playing along with us this week at the Friday Mashup!

  12. You're so good at these homespun cards Chrissie. I love the checked DP and the striped ribbon and those gorgeous house silhouettes. I totally empathise with your frustration and just as long as it's a new baby card you're delivering and not a new baby as I first read, I'm sure you'll be feeling better! Vx
