This is for the Featured Stamper Challenge to honor Amymay998's gallery. Fun stuff in there; I selected a least a dozen cards that inspired me. Final choice was: Brighter Neighbor by amymay998 at Splitcoaststampers
It reminded me of a stamp set I bought used and have rarely inked up. I was inspired to get it out. I selected a similar but not exact color combo. Rearranged the design and have fewer houses. I used washi tape instead of thread. There's a different sentiment, which usually goes on the back of my envelopes. It fit nicely on the card front this time. There's a heart on a house door, at the end of the sentiment and I popped on a die-cut heart for the Free 4 All Challenge to use hearts. This is going to an elderly friend who lives some distance from me and I rarely get to visit. Her favorite color is blue and I always use it on her cards. She lives in a two-story apartment building, so I made sure to use a tall blue house at the end. Thanks for looking!

Diane, your neighborhood, in its bands of matting, is charming. It's the precision stamping that make your section of town prime real estate (and the fact that a dear friend lives there, of course). Thanks for answering the challenges.
