Growing up was a huge fan of Laura Ingalls Wilder. Her ‘Little House’ series of books was regular reading for me at the ripe old age of 8! So as I was making this project, I couldn’t help but think of her books.
A good friend of mine’s daughter is getting married in July and he asked me to make a card for him to give her. I was so flattered at his request I knew I had to make it WOW!
I started by creating a wedding card with a contemporary look. All I can say is thank God for dies that cut out Designer Series Paper images. I have always loved the Amazing Congratulations stamp set. It’s one I’ve held onto over the years.
For the inside, I relied on the Pop On By die that creates an awesome pop up house. I relied on the current Country Woods Designer Series Paper colored with the Dark Soft Sea Foam Blends marker to creat the house itself. As I final touch I added some flowers in the same colors as the flowers on the front of the card. Along with a personalized sentiment on his suggestion, I created a pocket on the right to slide in a check. I couldn’t have been more pleased!
I hope you like it as much as he (and I) do.
What a beautiful card for them to cherish!

Beautiful card. Love the "Little House"
A fellow Laura Ingalls Wilder fan. Read
them when I was a kid and encouraged my 4th
grade students to read when I was teaching.
