Old Favourite meets Brick & Mortar

Hi folks, hope you're having a great day.

Good Luck in your new home!

Some friends of ours have taken the plunge and are moving from the country side into a town today, hence today's card.
This set is no longer in the catalogue, but it's one of my forever sets, which sits on my shelf and comes out now and again.

This is what you'll need to create a similar card!

All measurements are centimetres
(dsp) = designer series paper, (r) = retired, (ss) = stamp set,

Card Stock: Smoky Slate 12.3 x 12.3 (wall layer)
Granny Apple Green 5.5 x 1.5 (door mat)
Whisper White 3 pieces 13 x 13 (card base), 4 x 14 (flower pot, congrats, wreath, lamp), 9.5 x 4.8 (behind the door)
DSP: Wood Textures10.5 x 6 (door)
Dies: (r) At Home
Embossing Folders: Brick & Mortar
Stampin Pads: Granny Apple Green, Memento Black
Stamp Sets: At Home With You
Stampin' Blends: Calypso Coral, Crumb Cake, Granny Apple Green, Highland Heather, Petal Pink, Pineapple Punch, So Saffron, Soft Suede

Emboss the smoky slate (cs) layer using the brick & mortar folder and adhere to the whisper white card base.
Stamp the granny apple green (cs) using the at home with you (ss)
Stamp the door onto the wood textures (dsp) and the rest of the elements using the long whisper white strip, using the at home with you (ss).
Colour the elements using the stampin' blends.
Using the at home dies, the door needs to be die cut twice, first with the outer frame and then the inner frame, when doing the second frame you can cut all the other elements at the same time.
With the last piece of whisper white (cs) stamp the sentiment "on your new home" from the at home with you (ss) over 2 lines in the middle and adhere behind the door opening, only around the edges (so the door will still open).
Adhere elements to card base, add a little wink of stella to the flame in the lantern, so it glistens.

Will be back again soon with more cards
