Art Impressions Challenge #224

Hello!

It's the second week of Art Impressions Challenge #224 - Feel the Love! AI has new Mansion stamps and Valentine stamps and dies!!

My card features the Valentine Mansion and of course the Holiday Mansion set. Both come with matching dies so it makes these cards easy and customable. I started by stamping all the images on watercolor cardstock. Then I used my Spectrum Noir Aqua pencils and watercolor brush to color all the images. With the matching dies I cut everything out, the house just needed some simple fussy cutting!

I picked out some pattern paper from We R Memory Keepers Chalkboard for the background and a different yellowish pattern for the ground.

For the Mansion I added it to white cardstock and trimmed around it, in hind sight I would have used foam tape so I could better add images to the windows, like I wanted but you live and learn!! LOL!!

I stamped the sentiment and cut it out adding it, the Mansion and mailbox to the card. Kept it simple since you can open the doors to see the bear and heart flowers.

Thanks for stopping by! Make sure you stop by the AI blog and play along for your chance to win some goodies!!
