 Hello---

Now what was I saying about more Christmas cards?   Ya my attention span is ZERO these days.

I needed a new home card.  When I saw Leslie's cards using this die...I had to get it. 

The die is called Rickety House from Memory Box, it comes with the fence too. Its an all in one die and I have to say my new Gemini Jr cut it beautifully in one pass. Along with the memory box die, I used a cloud die from MFT, and punched a 1/2 in circle for the sun. Glad I still had that punch...I sold about 20 of them a while back. But I did keep all my little circle punches - Yay me! The embossed panel is from Greta, she puts them in her cards to protect the card fronts...clever girl and the recipient gets a treat too! The little path was hand cut from a kraft scrap.

I am going to add this to the Can you handle the pressure gallery - no twist.

So you are "inspired" to go shopping by others too huh?!! Sure glad I'm not the only one, and I loved Leslie's cards with the MB houses too! Sweet card Cat and what a nice way to celebrate someone's new home! Thank you so much for the adorable Thanksgiving card I received yesterday...nothing better than happy mail from sweet friends!! Have a great weekend...we're being bombarded with snow this weekend! Hugs. :0)

Ack, what a treat to see this little house again! It's the cutest, easiest, most fun thing and I'm glad I enabled you. Not sorry one bit. It makes a darling new home card with the path leading up to it and the sun peeking from behind a cloud. The embossed panel from Greta is a beautiful bonus. I love it all over, Cat!

Such a sweet new home card and great use of the embossed panel from Greta. I like how you have offset your oval panel. I would have had to put it in the centre and then fret that it was slightly off! xx

This is such a cozy little house, Cat! Love the embossed frame! A clever reuse!

Greta said...

This is absolutely one of the sweetest cards I've ever seen! So happy the embossed panel survived & worked for the background!
