I was inspired by a sweet little MDF house
I found in my stash
and wondered who would live in a house like that :)
I first drew the house roughly, my old school set square came in handy to draw around to make the roof and I also used a heart shaped metal die to draw around.
Next I painted house/heart and background with PaperArtsy chalk paint and gouache. Then loosely painted a few bricks and flowers and added quote and TH vintage people die-cuts.
Thanks for stopping by
