It's Week 2 at CR84FN64 and I decided to design my change of address card. I have a lot to make!
I wanted to make flat cards so I won't have to pay extra postage or use special envelopes. Here's my design:
The background is woodgrain and I stamped the house on patterned paper. I am going to use lots of scraps to make the rest of my cards in different colors.
At the last minute I decided to add this Beautiful light blue flower just because! Sorry to say it won't be on all the other cards I make!

Home is DEFINITELY where the heart is! I am so Happy to be back in Florida close to our son and my now all alone Dad with my DH who is retired and has lots of plans for us!
That's my card for this week! I hope you like it!
You still have some time left to play with CR84FN64 and

Happy Crafting!
In case you're interested, here's the PILE of address change cards I stayed up until 3:15 AM making! I thought I'd take a photo before they were all in envelopes:
And here's a close up of one of them:
I made them more CAS without stitching or Prima flowers but I distressedthe edges and used a TON of scraps! Hate to say it but GLAD they're almost done! Now I'm definitely NOT looking forward to making Christmas cards! LOL!
Thanks for stopping by!
