Welcome to the neighborhood

Post by pugmom »

Lately, all my crafty time has been spent making Thanksgiving and Christmas cards, but I did take a break and had fun making this "welcome to the neighborhood" card.

Backstory - I live in a very small subdivision and a few of us have gotten to know the couple that is building on the last available lot. They're great, super friendly and they each have a wonderful sense of humor.

They were originally going to install an in ground pool, but building costs skyrocketed during COVID and now they have put that on hold. So..... when they finally move in, which may not be until January, as a housewarming gift, a few of us are giving them an inflatable kiddie pool and I made this silly welcome card for all of us to sign.

Sue
Was this a stamp or do you draw your card?

Laurie, it's a double fold pop up card - the background houses are print and cut files from Silhouette Studio and the people are all fussy cut and colored from Art Impressions stamps.
