Happy home!

My brother in law and his wife have moved into a new house. As I don't have an appropriate stamp set for this occasion, I made one myself. I've combined two sentiments of WMS Tiny Trees and made: happy home! The papers are again from BG Picadilly! The other stamps from Maya Road and Eline Pellinkhof. I have bought the flower die on our local market. I die cut the flower three times to get more volume in it.

The next card was an attempt to join the Lift Challenge. But I'm not a big star with sketches... I made a little draft on a small paper and went into my 'atelier'. After finishing the card I saw that I didn't use the sketch well. But no problem. It is a nice card to send to someone, isn't it? Papers are from Jillibean, butterfly die from Joy!

Many of you commented on my use of combinations of heavy printed paper. I was thinking of the reason why I like to use the papers in this way. Maybe it has something to do with my quilter's background. I am a quilter for more than 10 years (started at the age of 19 after being motivated by my mother). I really like to make combinations with fabrics and colors. Many 'rules' helps a quilter to make the good mix. It has to do with dark-light colors, kind of prints etc. In fact with scrappaper it works the same. So, if you like to know more about this, I recommend you to borrow a quilt book for beginners and it will definitely help you to make nice combinations!

Thanks for coming by! Really appreciate it!
