We're moving card ideas

[scrappinchick]

Since I do not have the set "right at home" in the catty, I was wondering what other sets you all think might make good "we've moved" cards?? I have lots of sets, just not that one particular!! lol Thought of ordering it, but i want to start the cards tonight!! What do you all think??

You could always order the set today and, while you are waiting for it to arrive, get the rest of the stuff ready - cut cardstock, etc - then when your set gets to you, you'd just have to stamp and assemble! Or, you could see if someone in your area has the set and would be willing to let you borrow it. I like it - it's really cute - but I would rather borrow it from someone if I could rather than investing in something I hope to not have to use very often! But then again, maybe it can be used as a welcome to your new home type card or congrats on your new home or.....Hm. I might have to pick this set up myself now.

Have fun with your cards. Sorry I don't have any ideas as to what to do. I looked at my sets and was not struck by anything to do with them in terms of a "we've moved" card.

Do you have any set with a cow? "We've mooooved"? Sorry I don't have the Right at Home set either or I'd let you borrow it. Good luck.

"All God's Children" has a house in it...the words could be masked off. It's on the small side.

Do you have something that looks like a spring-y door wreath? If so, make doors by folding CS to meet in middle, stamp squares on both side with versamark or tone-on-tone (makes it look like panels on the door), add your wreath (glued to the left side only ), make "doorknobs" with brads, and hang your "we've moved" tag on the doorknobs.

Last year's Ronald McDonald set had a house in it--I used that to make just moved cards for a teacher friend.

Another idea is if you have any of the chairs/fans/household item stamps is to stamp a few of them randomly at the bottom of a card and have the top printed to say something like "The boxes are still packed, the house is a mess; but you're welcome anytime at our new address!"

HTH,

When we moved to Florida, I used the little VW Beetle from the Groovy/Flower Power set, I forget the exact name. Drew little lines with puffs on them behind each bug to show we were smooookin' out of there.
