Good morning.
I hope you are managing to keep cool during this latest heatwave in the UK, knowing our weather it will change and we'll bemoaning the fact that it's too cold!! Our walls are very thick 3 bricks, an airgap then insulation but even then the heat gets through, so it's been a case of cooling the house down as and when. Keeping the heat out in the first place is the best as once the solid floors heat up they radiate the heat back!!!
Anyway over at Cardz4Guyz we are celebrating our 300th post. That means that I have done that many posts too as I was there right back at the beginning!
So for our theme Caz has chosen the theme of:-
CONGRATULATIONS
Lots to go at there, graduation, new job, engagement, wedding, passing your driving test but I chose New Home with this design.
This card was made for an ex-neighbour's son who moved to a fab new house.
Using the page of an old road atlas that refers to the village to which he moved, well as near as I could make it, I die cut the horizon using a STAMPlorations die and backed it with a similar panel of white card to give it strength. The little heart was a left over from an IO Heart of Hearts cut. The background panel was inked with Salty Ocean DI and the sentiment is a Woodware and Pink and Main combo.
So what will you be celebrating? We'd love to know and look forward to seeing your cards in the gallery. There's more inspiration, if you need it, over on the Cardz4Guyz blog.
See you soon.
A new home is always cause for celebration!! I hate that you don't remember where that sentiment came from because I need one of those!! Oh well...I'll keep looking!! I love that you used a map of the location of the new house...great idea!! What great inspiration you have offered to those who decide to play along with our 300th challenge...CONGRATULATIONS...over at Cardz 4 Guyz!!
