But first, the one I did for myself, to match the colours of my lounge, which I ended up framing. I told you I loved this stamp. After colouring it, I decided to add a picket fence with a border of flowers, I shortened it to fit, I print and cut it out on my Silhouette. I also framed it with a stone effect embossing folder, then framed it in a frame I found hanging about, as you do!

I coloured this one to be similar to a Welsh cottage, for my local brother
This was coloured to look be similar colours to Somerset Cottages,
I was thinking thatch cottage colours!
This was coloured to be in similar colours to the pink Suffolk Cottages, even though they live in the next County, Lincolnshire! SiL likes character cottages.
I hope you have liked my cottages

It's a beautiful house image Faith and your colouring is fabulous. I love how you've made the houses look at how they would be in the particular area your family live in. Your own one looks fabulous in it's frame.
Good to hear that you are going to tune into Barbara Grey videos, the ones I'm following are no.28 up till no.32, that's all the nuthatch image. The doodles are fabulous though, Kate x x
I can see why you had to have that stamp - it's so whimsical and just plain fun! Your framed version is amazing made with your favorite colors and the different colored cards for your brothers look equally amazing in different colors! Great job on these!!
Wow, Faith, what a great stamp. Such beautiful creations you made.
The one you framed, with the flowers is wonderful. A lot of stamping
and coloring and what a beautiful result.
A fabulous picture Faith, a super stamp - I can see why you love it so much. Your cards are great as well, I love all of the different colours.

Your cottages are absolutely lovely, Faith! I love how you colored each one to suit the recipient! The one you created for yourself is wonderful!

I love these Faith! I'm always seeing stamps and thinking that I HAVE to have them lol! You've already got plenty of use out of yours and I love the way you coloured them differently to suit the recipients. The sentiment made me chuckle! Take care, Vicky x
Love your cottages, Faith! I bet your family members were thrilled to get these--hope they frame theirs, too! The sentiment is so much fun!
Beautiful work Faith, love that sentiment too!
So pretty.
What a fantastic stamp, Faith! I can see why you love it so much. What a wonderful variety of colors and color combos. On the one you framed, I do love the tiny English garden you put in front of the cottage along with the picket fence. Beautifully done, my friend! :-D
