JULY 2018 DESIGNER'S CHOICE CHALLENGE

Hello house friends!!!! 

HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY TO ALL MY FRIENDS IN THE USA!  

Not sure if it's cool where you live, but here in Maine, the heat has been intense.  I'm not complaining though...our winters are long and cold.  

It's Designer's Choice Challenge at The House That Stamps Built and today, Heather is challenging us to "the great outdoors" for a challenge theme.  


Moose are in the great outdoors here in Maine, so I thought I'd use this Repeat Impressions Stamp #802-K "Moose Family Sil" the sentiment is RI#1145-F "Greetings from Maine".

After heat embossing the moose with white ep on a scrap piece of designer paper which I tore.  I then tore a scrap piece of green card stock to match and layer against the plaid piece.  Both pieces were adhered to a panel of wood design paper.  The sentiment was also heat embossed on a scrap piece of cs that I cut uneven end edges.  Mounting tape was added to the back, then a piece of twine attached.  I mounted it against the panel to look like a rustic windblown sign. 

This is a fun challenge.  What's in your outdoors?  Come on over to THE HOUSE  and show us.  

Here's what my rock star team mates are showing off their great outdoors.  


Thanks so much for stopping by today.  

Have a safe and happy Independence Day America!!!!

Of course you know the first thing I saw on this card don't you SS. TARTAN! Oh what a beautiful card you have made here. Love the woodgrain background and the crooked sign is brilliant. And I do LOVE those moose walking in front of THAT paper. The torn edges makes it just perfect. Did I say how I LOVE this card!

Oh I love this - especially with the moose stamped in white on the plaid paper. And the sentiment is perfect. You could use this for a Holiday card as well as well just about anything.
