Love Grows in Happy Homes

Hey there, I have a pretty little card to enter over at The Paper Players! I've used Ann's color challenge to CASE one of my own cards made many years ago. The reason for the CASE was that I found the cutie PTI birdhouse already cut in one of the colors I needed! 


I stamped the (PTI) leaves to hang the birdhouse from, then topped them with the leftover heart cut-outs. The sentiment and birdhouses are from the PTI Love Lives Here set. An old set that never gets old! After cutting the panel with a Spellbinders hemstitch die, I popped it onto a white card base then added the pearls.


And off she goes to the gallery and I'm off for a regular eye check up.

Dilation... no fun!!

Some stamp and/or die sets are worth keeping, no matter how old, and your PTI set is definitely one of them, Lisa! Those little birdhouses just make my heart happy and I love the sentiment. What a darling card and I'm so glad you joined in with us at the Paper Players this week!

This is the third time I have come over to comment on this wonderful card. I keep getting distracted. It is a very busy time for me as well. I hope you are taking good care of yourself too. I love this stamp set, and so love the way you used it in this design. The fonts on the sentiments from this set are so wonderful too. All in all, this is just a wonderful card!
