CP Housewarming

To celebrate the launch of the new Catherine Pooler.com , they are having a housewarming party.   There are a lot of prizes up for grabs and a number of ways you can enter.  One way is to make a card with the theme "Home".  I went a whole different way with my card, partly out of necessity since I don's have the appropriate stamps.


Since I live in Michigan, and the mnemonic for the Great Lakes is HOMES I went with that.  My apologies to the upper peninsula and Lake Superior but I just needed the HOME and used my computer to create the label.  I traced a clip art image, watercolored the lakes, and added a red heart covered with glossy accents right where I live.  The background paper is stamped with a MFT pinstripe in soft granite, covered with a piece of smoke cs, and then the image.  I don't know what I'll do with the card, but I really like how it came out.

Thanks for stopping by.  Let me know if you're ever in the "middle of the mitten" so we can get together.

    Very creative use of the word "home". I love how it is so personalized to where you live.

    This is really cute. I think sometimes when we don't have the perfect stamp, it forces us to be creative, and this looks like one of those occasions. Love how this came out.
