Craftsman Style Card


Hello and Welcome!

I have a Congrats...on your New Home card to share today. It celebrates my Son and DIL's purchase of their new home which is a craftsman style home. It's sweet serendipity that the papers in the Artisan Style collection by G45 happen to feature a craftsman style home. 

Their beautiful new home...

They share it with our grand cat and two new additions-a cockatiel and a conure. They've jokingly called their home the bird house so I had to fussy cut the peacocks and include them on my card. So far they are enjoying home ownership but I don't think the lawn maintenance is that popular with our son lol. We're proud of them and their accomplishment!


I used alpha and number stickers from the sticker sheet for my sentiment and to record their house number. Although G45 has a lion door knocker this one happens to be from The Paper Studio's Spare Parts line. I'm saving the pair of G45 door knockers I have for the mini album I plan to make them in the coming weeks. This is one of the ideas I "borrowed" from G45 DT member Lori Williams. Because their house is a craftsman style I used a sticker from the sheet and placed it over the word Artisan to record their style of home. I really hope they like it!


Thanks for dropping by for a visit! 
I hope you have a wonderful weekend, wherever you are.
