Hi crafters! I started with a piece of
Cobalt Blue card and used the
Pearl Whisper Airless Mister across it to give the illusion of a peaceful nighttime sky. I used the moon from the
Moonlit Owl die set cut out of silver card and glued it in the upper corner. I cut the
House Front Shaped Card die out of
Arctic Blue card. I added tan roofs and shutters to all the windows. From the
House Accessories die set, I used
white vellum for the curtains behind the windows with a bit of yellow ink behind them to look like the lights were on. I added a couple of topiaries and a wreath to the door. The dog was sitting outside the house while the cat is in the doorway. I cut the
Happy Retirement sentiment in white and attached it to the side of the house. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 3/4" x 7 3/4" in size. All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue, wow, clever. The dark sky background with a touch of mystery. I loved your card fronts and the accessory die collection when you showcased them at launch. Every single crafter that chooses to use these dies will have something totally different at the end unless they follow a video step by step. I've made some stupid choices in my life but the most ridiculous is not owning either this or the cottage, but I'll rectify that and Easter is on the doorstep and Im usually given a die rather than chocolate so fingers crossed lol.
Hope everyone has a good Saturday, stay well, stay safe and smile xxxx
Morning Sue.
Thank you a lovely card.
Take care and have fun Kitty.

Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, brilliant sample, I have these dies and they are fantastic, the detail on them is amazing. When my son and family moved to there new 6 bedroom house this year I made a card for them based on the brickwork and colours of the doors etc, also made a picket fence to go around, they were so pleased with it.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx

I love this set. I used it for Christmas and to welcome several new neighbors into our neighborhood. Here is another use which I had not thought of. I enjoy "decorating" the house... and made them to match the houses of people who I sent it to.

Love this card. So peaceful, indeed. Love the nighttime sky and the vellum behind the windows with a bit of yellow ink behind them to look like the lights were on. So clever. Thank you for the inspiration, Sue.
Hugs from Toronto to you all.
Stay safe and healthy.

Fabulous clever card x
I lost my job few months back and there was no way to get income for my family, things was so tough and I couldn't get anything for my children, not until a met a recommendation on a page writing how Mr Bernie Wilfred helped a lady in getting a huge amount of profit every 6 working days on trading with his management on the cryptocurrency Market, to be honest I never believe it but I took the risk to take a loan of $1000. and I contacted him unbelievable and I was so happy I earn $12,500 in 6 working days, the most joy is that I can now take care of my family I don't know how to appreciate your good work Mr. Bernie Doran God will continue to bless you for being a life saver I have no way to appreciate you than to tell people about your good services.
