Congrats on Your New Home

Oh, hi!  I've got two Congratulations cards to share today because two couples I know just bought a house.  And the Pink Avenue stamp set from Pink & Main was perfect!  The set has a variety of houses and super cute accessories like trees, a mailbox, a birdhouse, even a little car.

Anywho, here's the first card.  I googled a picture of Mr. and Mrs. S' house so I could get an idea of the colors of the house and it turns out that their house sits on a good chunk of property. Sooooo, I thought a simple layout of a sweet house surrounded by trees would be perfect.

I did a bit of masking and ink blending, too.  You can see how it all came together in the video:

I also used a picture for inspiration for the second card.  Mr. & Mrs. P's house is a cute little craftsman style with  brick along the bottom and shaker shingles on the front.  I was able to draw in the brick, but the shingles. . . not so much, so I opted for siding instead.



You can see how I added the brick in the video:
