Outdoor Fun

Hi friends!

It's time for a new challenge at The House that Stamps Built! Our challenge for this week is 'Outdoor Fun'.

This challenge called for a retirement card! Can't you just imagine a new retiree sitting in his adirondack chair under this tree?

Here's what I made:


I found a gorgeous piece of patterned paper, and added a strip of gold dotted Washi tape. It was then adhered to the white card base. The sentiment and image were stamped on another coordinating piece of cardstock with brown Memento ink, matted in white, and popped up on the base with dimensional foam squares. I like how this one turned out!

I used these Repeat Impressions' stamps:


Let's see your projects! Remember, you don't HAVE to use Repeat Impressions Stamps, but if you do, you have double the chance of winning!

    Love this - and the design paper is beautiful and perfect for this stamp. But let me clue you in - being retied does not mean sitting outside in a chair, I am busier now than when I worked.

    Love the peaceful scene on your card--perfect for a new retiree. But don't tell the recipient that we're often busier in retirement! Love the DSP you used, too. Those tree images add to the peaceful scene.
