Simon Says Stamp Neighborhood

Hi all, how are you? I hope all is well with everyone and I hope you're all enjoying a fabulous weekend!

My daughter and her boyfriend have both just started their new jobs and I made them both a card using similar products. 

First up is the one for boyfriend. 



I used black card and a Simon Says Stamp Neighborhood Die to make a silhouette cityscape and used Whimsy Stamps Rainbow Paper for the background. 



and I used a scrap of paper to decorate the envelope 



Next up is a shaker card for  daughter Amy. 
I dipped watercolor paper in Candied Apple, Fired Brick and Walnut Stain Distress Oxide Inks, drying between each dipping to prevent mud.  I then die cut the houses and arranged as shown. 



I used Tumbled Glass Oxide Ink for the sky and added a grassy slope using a Lawn Fawn Die 



YAY!! It's been a long jorney for them both, architecture is a long course and they both now have Master's degrees. So glad they have both managed to find a job! Not easy at the moment!

I was trying to determine if the entire card is paper pieced, or if all those horizontal lines are patterned paper? I don't see any links at the bottom of the post :-(
It's a magnificently colorful creation, Lorraine. SO SO BEAUTIFUL! hugs, de
