There really IS no place like home and I tried to show that with this card. I started by creating my background by doing a watercolor wash with Peerless Watercolors on Ranger Watercolor Paper. Then I cut all three of the houses from Home Sweet Home Die-namics from Sweet Tooth card stock and adhered them to the background after it was dry. Next I created the house scene in living color and added it to the scene, illustrating that “no matter how far away you roam”, there really is no place like home.

I stamped the sentiment at the bottom of my card base with Cement Gray dye ink, added a narrow strip of paper from Trail Mix Paper Pack, and popped my card front up on the base with foam mounting tape.

And that’s it for today—thanks so much for stopping by! See you soon!
