A New Home

Hello everybody.  Today I am posting a card for my nephew who has just moved house.  I know I seem to talk about him a lot but I don't have children of my own so I have "borrowed" my sister's son and he and his children are very close to John and me. Today  is his dad's 70th birthday. Happy birthday Michael and get well soon!
My Card

This is a 6 x 6 card base. I ran some white card through SB Dainty Dots folder, cut it into various sized rectangles and matted them all onto red card. The image was an internet find. I computer generated the sentiment together with the tiny house. Some red ribbon and pearls finished it off nicely.

Have a good day everybody and I hope you manage to fit in some crafting time!

    I love images like this Christine and I feel I've seen it before somewhere but can't remember where. A very apt card for someone moving house.
    Cheers,

    This is a real Mushroom House! Children over here believe that gnomes are living in here so you made a right choice for making this "New Home" card!
    I love it!
    Love,
    Lia

    Me again!
    We fly down Thursday, do the show all day Friday, home Saturday.
    We are staying at the Airport Travel Lodge and will be there all Friday evening to meet up with few people. Thought that would be easier than trying to find people at the show.
