That’s the feeling I get when I look at the image from the Porch set that Dina Kowal designed for ODBD.
I knew I wanted to create a card that was warm and inviting. I just didn’t know that it would end up taking me all morning to put it together! Here’s the end result of my labor of love:
I almost always heat emboss images and sentiments on my cards, but with the rattan chairs it was even more perfect because it added even more texture. I also popped out different parts of the image using Glue Dots® Pop-Ups. I used the Vintage Border Background stamp to make my curtains and ran those through a crimper, but after running them through my sewing machine they flattened out a bit. I added Papier Glass Finish to the windows.
To my visitors who are moms…have a blessed Mother’s Day!!
