Our home is filled with love

I've struggled with this one , the colour scheme is not really a mix I would go for. the stitching around the edges of the card and house is done by hand. My camera hasn't picked up the red colour very well. It is what it is !
The Kraft Journal - Make it Monday- theme -Family -that starts at home.
Over at CR84FN -colour challenge 11 -Red ,Kraft and Brown -An unusual combination but I thought I would give it a try.

If you had done cross-stitch I never would have met you !! That is one teeny reason why you should be here. I am envying you on your new bicycle, wish it was me, but it is ever raining here. Glad you didn't get washed away in your big rain !! (oh, yes, the card - red stitching is perfect for Kraft, isn't it. Great take on the family theme !)
