Moving

Just when you think it's safe to utter that "Spring" word, back comes the snow and the cold. What a difference a few days make. We've had snow, not much admittedly, but enough to provide a covering for the last two days and today it's thick fog, real stay inside weather! I hope it's brighter in your little part of Blogland today.

I've eventually finished my card for Brenda's challenge over on Floral Fantasies where she has a wonderful prize from Sir Stampalot. If you haven't already had a peek , it's well worth checking out.

The theme is Moving so I have done a Welcome to Your New Home card for my eldest Nephew who is moving into his first home next week!


It's very difficult to get a decent picture so I hope you'll bear with me.

I found a photo of a door on the internet and then photoshopped it to look like a painting and cut it so that the door actually opened. The greeting was done on the computer and a Crafty Individuals keyhole stamped on top. It was then matted behind the open door. I added glossy accents to the door and some mini gems for the handles.


The Crafty Individuals key was stamped onto grungeboard and cut out, easier said than done, and silver embossed. I rubbed black archival ink over the top just to dull the shine a bit. This was then hung on the wall from a brad.


It was all mounted onto a card that had been rubbed all over with a brown colourbox ink and the Heidi Grace swirl added as a finishing touch in the same blue as the little flower that was originally in the photo.

Thank you for stopping by and I hope your week is going well so far. I can't believe it's Thursday already!!
