Compose a Card

I had a bit of extra time this weekend to play with Becky Oehler's Compose A Card challenge. I also needed to make a card for a house warming for a coworker of my husband's. And I just received my first order of stamps from Waltzingmouse Stamps. So with all of those reasons behind me I made this card.

 

  

I'm totally in love with this wee little cottage; it is absolutely adorable.

The challenge called for using a negative image on the left side of the card but all I had for a negative image was this stamp - it'll have to do. :)

Stamps: Celtic Heritage and Irish Blessings (Waltzingmouse Stamps)
Ink: Ripe Avocado (PTI), Black (Memories)
Paper: Rustic Cream, Ripe Avocado (PTI); black (unknown)
Other: black ribbon, green ribbon

Well, after dinner I'm off to the house warming party. Have a fun evening everyone!
