I have a stack of odd bits of card shoved to one side so I began a sort through, dumping those that I couldn't use.
The brick background was obviously done for something (no idea what!) but it was there so I used that as the base - the card just kind of evolved from the background and it incorporated a little bit of everything and used up few odd bits.
The window die is one of a few Spellbinders ones that I own (and hardly use......)
I had a scrap of watercolour card (and it was only a teeny scrap) but miraculously it fitted behind the window!
So a little scene created with some stamps and watercolours.
The stamps are from a mag freebie some time back - and I bought the mag as I thought the stamps would be useful for quick New Home cards.
The fussy cutting of the plants and keys tried my patience a bit cos they really ARE small!
Used a grey brad to 'hang' the keys from.

It looks like you planned this one :) the scene is so perfect for your window. Reminds me of an old white washed milking shed looking out int the field. I expected to see the cows grazing in the distance :)
Lucky finding that brick background and what better to go with it than a window die. Both of these are versatile items which can be used in conjunction (or not) for so many different 'looks'. What's this about throwing out bits of card - something I find SOOOO difficult!!!!!??
Great how this all came together Viv..and I see the sorting out bug has got to you too! Love your little scene and especially those keys on the brad. Good use of all those left overs. xx
Fabulous fussy cutting and love those adorable little keys Viv. Wonderful scene making and the texture from the bricks look great. No I see no loss of mojo with this beautiful card x.
Lovely card, Viv. I love how it all came together from things on your desk. xx
This is such a sweet card, Viv! Always great when you can use things from your stash to make a card. Great work, my friend! xx
How inventive - everything works so well together!
