There's No Place Like Home

Hello crafters!  I started with a piece of white card and I inked up some green hills and the sun rising between them.  I cut the Keeper's Cottage out of aqua card and used Slate grey for the roof.  I used Ocean card for the windows, chimneys and door.  I cut the Bluebell Cottage out of taupe card and added a rust roof, windows and door to it.  I added the cottages with mounting foam, then cut a couple of fences in white and added them to the sides of the cottages.  I cut the trees and bushes out of three shades of green card and added them around the cottages on the hill.  I cut several white clouds and glued them to the top of the card.  I cut the There's No Place Like Home sentiment in black and glued it to the top of the card.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6"  x  7 3/4"  in size.  


All for now, Sue x

Good morning Sue. Hope you and your family had a wonderful day yesterday and are now returning to normal. What a lovely scene on today's card. I am sure that most of us can only dream of living in a place like this.
