Home Sweet Home

Our youngest just moved into a new apartment so I thought I'd make her a card for the occasion.  I went right to my batch of images by Deedee Anderson and grabbed an image from her Home Sweet Home set along with the sentiment and went to work on this card.
I used the pre-colored version but added a little bits of color on the bricks just so it had my own touch to it.  I added her new house number with stickers found some red gems that reminded me of reflective spots on some roads.  The paper was from my stash and I used a border punch by SU! cutting on both sides of the strip.  That will do it for me today, Thanks for popping in for a visit with me.  I always appreciate the company.  See you soon.

    It's perfect for a new home card, especially when it's for one of our own, Donna. :-D Love the color combo with the papers and trim!
