Another very simple card today for a friend who has just moved to a new house.
I found the idea on Pinterest and then thought how I could put my own spin on it using some of the long lost embellishments I have squirrelled away.
I started with a self adhesive, 3D house sticker from a pack I must have had for at least ten years, I then matched it with a pink polka dot paper, which I used to cover the front of a pre-scored card.
I coloured the wooden letters (The Works) with a mid blue Sharpie pen and then applied a layer of Ranger Glossy Accents to them.
I also added Glossy Accents to the roof, windows, door and smoke on the house. Glossy Accents has to be one of my top 10 "can't do withouts" when crafting, just adding a layer or a couple of dots here and there makes such a difference to any project, embellishments just pop and look much more professional and less handmade, if you know what I mean?
I positioned the house first and then added the letters on either side to make sure everything was pretty much centred and that was it ................simples.

Looking at the card in the pictures now I am thinking that it would look really lovely in an Ikea Ribba box frame ......... perhaps another idea for another day.
