I chose to make a friendship card this time.

 

I used two new die sets and used both Copic markers and Distress Oxides to achieve what I wanted. The distress oxide inks brighten the windows, color the bucket on the stand and walkway in front of the store while anything NOT WHITE is colored with Copic markers.  I'll write something on the plant stand on top of the cart when I decide to whom I will send this card. 

I COVERED UP some mistakes on the door by using the windows that fell out of the door window.  See the white blocks below the window and mail slot?  I had one tiny but oh so noticeable brush stroke of BG09 right below the window, so two wood paneling blocks went there.  Then for some reason, there was a tiny black mark below the mail slot, so I used 4 blocks to make it look like that was the way the door panel was supposed to look like.

I used the Lemonade & Amber for the windows, but I wanted more distinction, so I added a very light sponging of Apple.  
I'm very happy I invested in this corner store.  It was fun to put together.  I would watch the Vintage Pastry Shoppe Youtube video on putting the shoppe together as it is full of extra stuff - yes stuff.  Remember the door is open, so be sure to let the light shine down to the floor of the door.
