Hello friends!
I finally made something and am sharing it with you today.
A die like this is full of potential. I put my own spin and just had fun with it.
With my extensive traveling in the past, I have seen many, many rows of colorful houses.
From Bergen (Norway)
to Santorini (Greece)
I was inspired to create my own colorful houses.

If you look carefully, I actually added an extra piece white diecut houses underneath the watercolored houses. I find that this gives the houses some subtle dimensions and it still remains to be flat.
I love that effect. You can use any type of coloring medium. I happen to love the Spectrum Aqua Markers because I have all of the colors I want. The coloring is minimum, but the impact from the this intricate die is huge!
I hope you love house cards like this because I am just getting started :)
There is a sale over Simon Says stamp, you can check it out here.
If you love a good floral set, you should look into this one.
Thanks for stopping by!

Hooray Virginia! I just bought this die on a whim because it was so cute, and I honestly had no idea what I was going to create with it!!! I love your card, and want to thank you for all of the inspiration you give me!
Idiggs: that is SO good to hear! :) Sometimes I post cards that I don't think anyone would like it...but I post what I make and do not hold back anyway. LOL. Thanks for making my day!
What a sweet and friendly card. Love these dies that offer so much inspiration all by themselves. Would not have thought of coloring them this way, but it's so effective and pretty.
Such a sweet card, it must have taken ages to do all that colouring, Jo x
Your style to a t.
I did look closely and saw the added white. Brilliant, Virginia. Oh, I remember your lovely photos, and you created a lovely card mimicking your photos. Again---Brilliant.
What a great idea and adorable card Virginia!
