It's time for the 'Home Sweet Home' photo challenge at Time Out.
I zeroed in on that pretty vase in the back and this is what transpired.
I white heat embossed the background stamp from CF and watercolored it with Distress Inks. The frame is from Altenew and I glued together the outer portion and colored it with the same blue as the flowers. A sentiment from PTI gold embossed on vellum was added to the corner.
We spent the morning looking at carpeting and flooring and someone is coming this afternoon to take measurements. I dread having to move everything but it's given me reason to do some uncluttering. I just donated 60 quilt magazines to the library (I still have some left). I have a box of my beloved owls ready to donate and other things hopefully going on consignment. I already cleaned out my 12 x 12 paper and gave it to my daughter who is a middle school art teacher. Who knows what will be next.
Thanks for dropping by.

How sweet are all of those blooms! Love the way you've framed them too. This is charming Bobby!
Lovely art piece, beautifully framed, Bobby!
I've decluttered so many times in the last 25 - it's called moving!! Good luck, my friend - sounds like you have a good start!

Nothing makes you clean out stuff like getting new flooring. SO! MUCH! WORK!!! But really worth it in the end, you will feel like you have a brand new house. I love what you have done here. My eye went to the vases too, and you have really nailed the challenge. This card is simply FABULOUS!!!!
oh what a fab frame! And why didn't I think of that stamp! Super colouring-so fresh and full of Spring! New flooring....envy coming from me! Thanks for joining Time Out
What a beautiful background stamp and so beautifully colored too Bobby! I really thought it was DSP at first...that was a labor of love to color it all!! LOVE your blue frame too! This card will definitely cheer someone up. And good luck with all the clearing out...we need new carpeting in our bedroom and my craft room, but I keep putting it off because of all the clearing out and moving everything. Hope it goes smoothly and once it's done you'll love having all the new flooring in! :0)
Wow! You nailed that vase to a tee! Beautiful colors, and great card! Good for you doing that uncluttering... can't say I've done it for awhile (shhh)
It's the vase on a card, Bobby ... soooo pretty! Your soft colouring is gorgeous ... the textured frame sets it off beautifully! Enjoy the decluttering ... I love doing it, just don't get the time at the moment! Hugs, Anita :)
Silly me ... just as I hit publish I was thinking what a perfect take on our inspiration photo ... and then didn't say it ... now I have! Thanks so much for playing along with us at Time Out! More hugs, Anita :)
