Twilight Tuesday #49 - At Home in Forks

It's been a while since I did a Twilight Tuesday card, and today's Inspiration Challenge (Home is Where the Heart Is) seemed like a good one to do. The challenge was to make a craft based on either a home discussed in the series or what means home to you.

I know that Charlie's house only has windows on the first floor in the front, but this Lizzie Anne Designs house looks pretty close. I masked the house when I stamped the trees. And, of course, there's Bella's truck in the yard. I didn't have a truck stamp that was the right size, so I printed a clip-art image from one of my graphic programs -- Printmaster from Broderbund. When I did the sky, I didn't want to do it in blue, because there are no blue skies in Forks, Washington. So I used Going Gray to make the cloudy sky. I added a little paper piercing on two sides and popped up the sentiment.
