Upside Down Clouds and an Orange House




I don't buy embellishments often...



but these layered chipboard elements were too cute to pass up.

Wowzers!


Orange dress=Orange house.


I've learned to love orange since that's my husband's favorite color.


I hope to create another for the RIC!

Marlena...your house project is darling. I love the bright orange against the stark white background. Those Kaisercraft stamps done in black really are effective on the white as well. Love how you "built" your house out of layered chipboard! Clever! Thanks for sharing your project with us at Simon Says Stamp and Show. <3 Candy

Hmm, I could have sworn I commented on this already ... love it!! The way you have the cloud upside down, and that it's "pointing" to the sentiment, is design genius!
