Enjoy Your Retirement
Hello bloggers! I started with the background for today's card. I used several colours of Glitter Kiss to create it. I used Antique Rose, Periwinkle, Vintage Violet and Lilac Glitter Kiss. I set it aside to dry thoroughly, then cut a hill using the Stitched Clouds and Hills die. I taped it to the bottom of the card and drew in the road to the cottage with a fine tipped felt pen. I cut the Keeper's Cottage out of Arctic Blue and added the roof, windows and door cut from
Slate Grey card. I added several trees ad bushes cut from several shades of green card. I cut two topiaries and added them to either side of the cottage. I cut the Enjoy Your Retirement sentiment from the Milestone Wordie sheets and added it to the top of the card with mounting foam. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 1/2" x 7 1/4" in size.
All for now, Sue x

A great post. Love the cottage die range, but for me, not sure on the background. Though given the other comments it may just be how it is on my phone.
Good morning Sue

Hi Sue. This card has a lot of good ideas, but I am not too sure about the colours of the sky, it may just be that they haven't come across very well on my laptop. Everyone else seems to like it though. Sorry.
