Happy new house card: photo a week challenge

I made my very first (awesome) card this week!!!!  I am so crazy in love with it that it's amazing it actually made it in the mailbox and onto it's intended recipient the next day.  I suppose it's not actually my first card, I made my mom a mother's day card this year....but it's the first more convoluted card I've made (by myself, class cards not included).

Here it is!
28 June: Congratulations on your new house! card
Okay, I know it's just a card and doesn't look super amazing in the picture, but I still crazy love it.  The background paper worked out far better than I expected (creating a little driveway I hadn't planned) and Dave's mum had the perfect transparent stickers to match the stamped house. The bunting banner was leftover from my table runner project and didn't even have to be cut into triangles!  The inside of the cards is blank metallic blue.  For a card project done in an hour, I super pleased.  I hope the Alaskan recipient loves it as much as I do!
