New Green Home

Happy Friday!

I hope your week has gone well! And I hope your Thanksgiving was lovely & tasty. With all the reports of people moving (since they're working remotely now), these new images will be perfect for those moving to new digs. 

My card is pretty easy..I took a large paint chip, cut it apart to remove the white lines, then put it back together. Paint chips tend to go hand in hand w/ moving. Even in a new home, people tend to want to paint the walls a color they love. The houses/neighborhood die was cut out of white & attached on top. I already had the card front w/ the large window cut out, so it worked out perfectly. I stamped the key onto white & used a green Copic to color the oval. For the key, I colored around the edges w/ a silver gel pen then used a water brush to drag the color into the key. If you use water on most gel pen inks, it will act like a water color & move. It was fussy cut & added on top.

Here's the inside. 
Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a great weekend!

Julie, this die cut house is so cute & perfect for the new key image. I like the shades of green too. Thanks for the tip on the gel pens. I didn’t know that!

Totally fab dies and awesome colors, Julie. I love the idea of using a paint chip as the background for a new home card. Super way to use the key image too (inside and out). Super pretty and well done! Hugz
