Today I am sharing a card I made, using the Hearts Come Home stamp set, for my nephew and his fiancée who have just bought their first house. Although this set is technically a Christmas themed the houses work so well for a new home card.
Hearts Come Home card
I started with a piece of Whisper White cardstock measuring 3¼” by 2¼“and stamped the houses in a row using Merry Merlot ink. I added a tree either side with Shaded Spruce ink.
Using the Big Shot and the Layering Ovals Dies I cut out the stamped image. I then die cut a slightly larger scalloped oval from Shaded Spruce cardstock. I glued the 2 pieces together with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and set aside.
I ran a strip of Merry Merlot cardstock measuring 5⅞” by 1”through the Big Shot with the Petal Burst Embossing Folder and added it to the front of a Thick Whisper White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.
The stamped oval was added over top of the embossed Merry Merlot strip on Stampin’ Dimensionals. The sentiment was stamped in Shaded Spruce ink onto a ¼” strip of Granny Apple Green and added with Multipurpose Adhesive.
This is a really simple but effective card.
