It's my turn for this week's Project Inspiration for Papertrey Ink. I had so much fun creating this card and you can see it come together in 5 easy steps with step-by-step photos!
If you stop by regularly, you may have seen another "HOME" card that I'm planning on using as a "Welcome to the Neighborhood" card and that's how this one will be used, too! That being said, this could be used for someone returning from a trip, ministry, extended vacation, etc. You could also switch colors and details up to make this a "Home for the Holidays" Christmas design as well!
Cut an A2 panel of Pale Peony cardstock. Use the Fall Harvest Hot Foil Plate with champagne foil. Round the corners with a corner rounder punch.
Attach a strip of Bitty Big: Pale Peony pattern paper slightly higher than the middle. Cut the larger circle using the Love To Layer: Stitched Circle from Fine Linen cardstock. Cut a smaller circle from floral pattern paper using the middle sized circle included in the Love to Layer: Scalloped Circle Die. Glue them together and attach them to the background using foam squares.
Die cut the tiny house using the Bring Home the Holidays Die. Attach the tiny heart and bow.
Die cut the HOME word twice from white cardstock using the Larger Than Life: Home Die an glue them together. Heat emboss the companion sentiment in gold onto a strip of vellum. Wrap it around the background panel and secure it with tape on the back. Please note: the small heart on the house is from the HOME die.
Die cut the flowers and foliage using the Into the Blooms: Above Ground Die and then color them with dye ink and blender brushes. Attach them around the house using liquid glue and foam squares. Attach the panel to a top-folding A2 card base.
A few additional tips: I die cut the bow twice; once from white and once from the Bitty Big pattern paper. I offset them and secured them with foam squares. The "knot" is attached with liquid glue.
I only used small strips of foam tape to the top of the HOME die to carefully attach it to the circle.
I had so much fun creating this card and I'm thrilled to add it to the welcome to the neighborhood stash! Thanks for fluttering by!
