My House . . . the building stages . . .

It is getting closer, as you well know if you are reading my blog frequently. I thought I would post some pictures, including the latest one . . .




This is a picture of the house framed. We were pretty excited at this stage....














This is a picture of the house at the insulation stage. All of the insulation had been put in, all the wiring was in, and the tiles are on the roof to help the house settle. We did our framing inspection at this point.














This is our house as of Saturday. The drywall is all done inside, and we have stucco (unpainted still, but there) done on the outside. Our cabinetry should be in by Sept. 19th.














This is a view of the rear of the house. I am so excited about my balcony off the master bedroom! Also, excited about the huge backyard!!!

A new house is very exciting.
Congratulations.
Almost as exciting as the Grey's new season:) I am a fellow addicted fan and I may have to add Private Practice to my list of addictions soon too.

HANNA PREVIEW: For the Soul

This set is totally cool! I have not seen anything like it! I think it is perfect for a sympathy card, a thinking of you, a little hand out at church, maybe even for cards at Easter (thinking ahead here) etc. It is so CUTE! Hanna looks so angelic and well, to be completely honest, reminds me of my little sister (not sure why). I used the sketch at Card Positioning Systems (#83) for the layout. I was going for a "touched by an angel" look on the main image (and I think I kind of created that.) I used vellum to overlay the image to give it that glossy fuzz (soft focus). Stamps : For the Soul (Hanna Stamps), "God Bless" sentiment by American Art Stamp Paper: Lily Kate - Basic Grey, Neenah Solar White, SU vellum card stock, SU Whisper White Ink : Onyx Black Versafine Accessories : Sheer 5/8th Inch organdy ribbon, Nestabilities (Circle and scalloped circle), sewing machine, white thread, circle of plastic canvas, copic markers, white brads, paper piercing ...
