Moving house card for a little girl.

My fourth  post this evening is this little card I made for my Granddaughter who has recently moved house.
I used another retired set from S.U If I recall this was a sale a bration set a few years ago. I can't remember what it's called at the moment though.
It have only used it once before  so I enjoyed getting it out and  playing with this set. 
I have to say  this is not an easy set to use and you definitely need a stamp positioning tool  to get the roofs on the houses right.
The foreground was created by sponging old olive ink below  and between the houses and then dotting on  a little white ink using a gel pen to give the impression of daisies growing in the grass. I then  dotted in some tiny  blades of grass  and some bushes between the houses with  the fine end of an old olive  marker.
The sky was sponged  on  using bashful blue ink .

Lou's Moving house card.


A lady I know is moving  house tomorrow,  so this evening I made this card for her and her family.
The stamp set I used  is a discontinued set called "good neighbours" from stampin' up.
I have had this stamp set for ages and not used until  recently. The foregound I daubed with old olive ink the sky with bashful blue ink.
I used Stampin' up's designer paper on the base of the card and stamped the top half of the card using one of the tree tops from the trendy trees stamp set.
