New home wall hanger

Here is the wall hanger I did last weekend - safe to show it now! It used to be a plaque with a saying on it - you know the kind you see in the cheapy shops. Well I gessoed it then used paint dabbers for the sky, grass and sunshine. Overstamped with library green archival ink and blonde moments little bit of this background stamp. The houses are from a stampin up wheel - onto papermania V&A papers (love them the colours are fab!). Windows and doors coloured with promarkers then added to the hanger. Home sweet home is a dimension fourth stamp. Finished off with ribbons and a key dangling at the side. This is for my Docrafts Buddy Mandy - I hope she likes it x She is just moving home to where she says shes going to retire LOL.
Im entering this into the Allsorts challenge which is to alter something
Hope the weekend is turning out to be fab for you x Janet
