Welcome Home


I'm popping in with a last minute entry for the AAA Card Challenge where we have to use 1 image with the optional twist inspired by TV.  We often have HGTV on in the background when we're puttering around the house and Fixer Upper is on quite regularly.  When Chip and Joanna show their clients their new house they always say, "Welcome home."  

Funny story about Fixer Upper - I caught the end of an episode a few weeks ago and thought the husband from the couple whose house was being renovated looked very familiar.  Turns out that's because he was my first boyfriend!  I remembered afterwards that
his family was originally from Texas (they lived here in Bermuda for a couple of years) and he went to university at Baylor so its not surprising he's ended up back in Waco.  So weird to see someone pop up out of the blue who I haven't thought about in forever.  Know what's even weirder?  That makes 3 boys I've kissed who have turned up on reality tv shows.  Either there are too many reality shows or I kissed too many boys in my youth!

Cardstock:  (White) Papertrey Ink, (Pistachio Pudding, Basic Grey, Basic Black) Stampin' Up
Stamp:  (Sentiment from Warm Welcome) SugarPea
Ink:  (Pistachio Pudding) Stampin' Up
Die:  (Welcome, house) SugarPea
