Good morning!! Last weekend we were able to move many of our boxes out of the storage containers and into the new house with the help of 3 dear friends. Acts of kindness like this (who wants to move boxes on your day off?) overwhelm us and so I wanted to show our appreciation in a small way with a handmade card. I immediately thought of the PTI Love Lives Here set. It’s perfect for creating a “home”y feel to cards.
Things are coming together at the house…here are a few updates…the wood floor is in the basement and studio now :) It’s engineered hardwood. Love it next to Sahara Sand.
The front door is now stained!! I love how our painter made it look like a wood door with just the streaking of the stain! It’s a fiberglass door! Cool :)
the kitchen backsplash…before grout. I didn’t think it would be so busy…but I think the cream grout will soften it.
Another shot of it…there will be an inset in that empty spot…some diamond tiles with dark squares.
thanks for visiting…have a blessed Sunday :)
what’s in them?

And look at your house! Another WOWZAS!!! LOVE that backsplash - *swoon* and the dark stain - BEAUTIFUL! It is amazing how he made the door look just like wood!
Maureen, both of your cards are simply gorgeous! I love the soft DP. These little glittered house and hand are very cute. I love how you put a butterfly on them. And you're right - the sentiments are just perfect for your occasion. Congratulations on your new home!
Hugs, Maria.
The cards are just beautiful- I love all the layers, and everything came together wonderfully! (house is lookin' good, too!) : )
Your cards are gorgeous Moe...I am in love with the glittery hand and house...so perfect! Wish we lived closer to help you too :)

Love the pop of sparkly pink on each card. Great layering and I'm sure very well appreciated by those who helped. Love the wood stained door and everything else is coming right along :) Fingers crossed for you!!
So nice to know you're still in cyberspace! I'm sure you had withdrawal. :-) Looks like things are hopping with the house, it won't be long now! I hope the move goes without a hitch. Your cards are extral special, love the pink glitter! Have a great week!
Well y'know if I lived closer that I'd have helped you guys out too (especially if it meant I received one of those gorgeous sparkly cards! *wink*)
Oooh the house is coming on a treat, Diva! Seriously? That door is fibreglass? It looks like a huge, heavy, wooden door with so much character!
Hugs!

Your cards are lovely - and just right for giving to your helpers, but wow - that door really blows my mind! I LOVE IT! Is it just the backside painted that way or both sides? It's gorgeous =) The house is coming together perfectly!
