Raspberry Brick House card (Zuri Artsy Craftsy)

Hi Crafty Friends,

I have some new cards to show today, starting with this one. I love creating a scene on my cards so I was excited to try out my brick embossing folder and window die cuts in an unusual pink colour. I distressed it all so it would help differentiate between the bricks and the window. I added some netting and lace to the window. This image is from Zuri Artsy Craftsy.

I am entering this card into the following challenges:

A Gem of a Challenge - hearts and/or flowers (flowers)

I'm rich card (Zuri Artsy Craftsy image)

Hi crafty friends,

Isn't it lovely how we all can communicate and share our creativity with others all over the world nowadays? I know I sound old haha but it's so hard to imagine no internet now, what did we do, how did we find information on anything without Google, I just can't believe most of us have lived in those days, I'm sure the younger generation couldn't even fathom the idea of no technology hehe! I know my daughter wouldn't survive without her mobile it would seem haha.

I love sharing my cards and I absolutely love looking through other blogs to get inspiration and get me excited to create when I have a little lull in mojo.

I have created this card for my very first girlfriend who lives in England (I'm in Australia). We have kept in contact and even caught up with each in person a few times over the past 33 years. My family emigrated to Oz when I was 10. We are hoping to meet in Vegas this year, what fun that will be! I loved this sentiment out of a friendship book of quotes I have so I decided to add it to my card. The sweet girl is from Zuri Artsy Craftsy and I added some little alphas to the letter she is holding hehe.
