Home Note Card

 

Hi There! Thought I would show you how I made this card today. 

I began by stamping sky terrace on to an A6 piece of greyscale catalyst card. 
Next I tore some strips of coloured catalyst card to make the hills. I chose 3 which contrasted in colour, playing with them until I was happy with the arrangement. 

on another piece of coloured catalyst card I painted a thin layer of gesso to make the colours a bit less vibrant. 
I blended a little mermaid lagoon ink onto the gessoed card too. 
After sponging a little walnut stain Distress oxide around the edges of each layer, I began to stick them together using matte medium. I tucked the edge of the house into the last layer.  
I attached the papers to the front of a 6x4" white card and added the Home sticker from the Winter wordy stickers. 
Here is the finished card again. 
I used: 
A6 Catalyst cards #1 Greyscale and full colour
Distress Oxide ink - Mermaid lagoon and Walnut Stain

Thank you so much for looking!

    Such wonderful colourful papers Sally, and love the way you have built up the scene using them and cut the house from a piece of the grey toned paper and finished with the 'Home'. This is a perfect moving house card I think. I'm thinking this is probably your last post here before Christmas so I hope you have a lovely time and looking forward to seeing your beautiful work throughout 2025. x
