Home is...

were your mother is. Love this sentiment :-) I like to sent my Mom cards like this - cause it's the simple things like a certain dish or smell that always remindes you of things when you grew up.

When i saw that house at Alota Rubberstamps a few months back i fell instantly in love with it. I actually got it because it think it works so nice with all kinds of people images. For this card I used Tilda with broom. I dont know.. i like how the patterns repeat .. see the curtains - the wave.. i think it looks nice with the way Tilda's dress swings. I also cut a scalloped border with my siccors to imitate the waves of skirt and curtains. The paper is a pack of 8x8 from SEI that i found at Michaels on sale this weekend.
