I made this as another card for Lisa's WTUI challenge today. I'd lost track of a friend's moving date - DH will mail this on his lunchtime walk today.
I delved deep into my box of assorted DP scraps and pulled out some old BG solid paper for the background, which I embossed, and swiped over the bottom part with ink, sanded the upper part, just to make a difference between foreground and background without introducing another colour. The flowers were punched, with Liquid Pearl centres, and the little cat was a RAK but everything else - trees, house, clouds, fence were pieced using the Home Sweet Home set. I added Congratulations to run with the challenge, and while I was going to position it lower down the heart, it worked well running in a continuous line with the fence, so that's where it stays.

I love that BG I am totally going to need to remember this so I can try it. I love the pieced together papers from your DP stash too. I did a card similar years ago for my niece and nephew and it is one of my favorite cards because I could play in my scraps. Thank you so much for creating a second card for the challenge.
