Here is yet another simple Chunky House. The theme of this swap is Lover's Lane. I set out to create a vintage look and I am happy with my result.
This was made from cardboard from food packaging. I layered scrapbook paper for the background. The paper flowers I made at a make and take at a local scrapbook store. I jazzed them up at home with gears and metal brads. The vintage image is from 1934, the lovers are blushing with adore. I framed out the image with really cool acetate die cuts from Tattered Angels. The brass heart was part of a barette that I scored at a local thrift shop. A bit of ephemera, a small key and wax drippings add a few more details to my chunky little house. At the last minute I framed out the roof with scraps of scrapbook paper, the music pattern was on the back of the paper I used as my base layer.
Looks great.... love the soft colors and the way you framed the pic.
