Home Sweet Home

Some friends of ours are moving home this week and this is a small gift that I have made for them.  I saw something similar to this for sale on one of the handmade sites and thought to myself, I could make that, the one that I saw was made with fabric but mine is paper.


I have used old stash again, some very old papers along with a frame that I have had for ages.  I cut the house, windows, door and trees and just roughly drew around the outside with black pen.  The background is two pieces of Craft Consortium Grunge paper and I used Hunkydory dies to cut the letters from more scraps of paper.


Thank you for visiting my blog today, your company is much appreciated - please leave a comment so that I can come and visit you.
