Journaling reads: This is the house that BJ and Dorothy bought around the time Jerry was born. It was the first home they owned. Until then, they had lived with BJ’s parents. They later added on another bedroom, large kitchen/dining area, laundry room and double carport, and bricked the outside. They lived there until 2006, when we built a house for them next door to us.

This was my husband Jerry's home that he grew up in. This photo was taken around 1954.

The corners of the white bg are rounded, as are the bottom outer corners on the colored squares. The four colored squares are stitched with DMC floss. The scallops around the top half of the page are stiched by alternating four colors of DMC. For the clouds, I stamped a bg and then the cloud shape. Then I cut them out by hand. All of the little houses, cars and trees were hand cut from pp. The title and date were done using assorted old stickers from my stash. The grass border was punched. The navy strip under the cars is pp. The yellow strip is ribbon. Both of those were attached using the tiny attacher. Lastly, I added the journaling strips and the stitched banner. Other stamps used, but not listed below are Owl Garden Craft Affair by Hampton Arts and Circle Dots by Stampin' Up. Thanks so much for stopping by :)
