New home

Totally out of my comfort zone with this New Home card. DD needed one quickly and this is what I managed come up with.
I paper pieced the Hero Arts house, not sure of the papers they're some in a left over pile of Cosmo Cricket I think.
Love my Martha Stewart Picket fench border, the tinky flowers are an old do crafts punch and the leaves are the Martha Stewart snowflake which has seen better days.
I felt the the top of the card looked plain and even though I have this thing about white and cream together (can't stand black and navy together either) but I confess that the white clouds look OK
