"I Could Use a House"
Heather's comment ("I could use a house,") started us thinking......
The same friend who harrassed us to "Blog Something" has been urging carving the buildings in the MiniMall (where everything in stock and on sale is housed). We resisted, but as we explored the "House for Heather" possibility, the idea seemed to make more sense.
We will not attempt an "accurate" drawing of Heather's house--or yours! But we'd really like to see pictures of your house. With a collection to spur us on, we would like to try for an assortment of houses. New ones, old ones, modern, Victorian, ranch, city lofts, apartments and styles from all over the country (or countries). Every area seems to have its own particular "look." From this, we hope to make a series of drawings to work individually or together to form neighborhoods that capture your imagination. Send us your pictures, your requests and watch this project grow. Hopefully we will end up with a stamp for Heather and a gg designs village (one building at a time) for everyone. Join the fun! Send your picture to STAMPSggdesigns@aol.com and see if you can spot your house as the "street" takes shape.

I love this idea. I'm not sure my area has a really distinctive style, not one I'm aware of anyway. Might be interesting to explore that a bit. Can we also send picts of other houses we particularly like? I don't know what the copyright issues might be with picts from mags or books, etc, but if the picts are just to give a general idea of an interesting type... Maybe even fantasy stuff?
Gee, I wonder who "gogo" is? !!! To those of you who don't know, it's my friend Gloria....the one who harrassed me to "Blog Something" and wants the MiniMall buildings carved! Glad you're willing to "play." There won't be any copyright issues because the pictures are just for ideas and detail....so send whatever!!! And keep harrassing!!! Maybe that way something will get done!
That goes for anybody else who's checking the Gazette or this Blog. The more participation the more apt this is to actually turn into something fun.
Thanks Gloria, for your unflagging support!

Maybe I'm a trendsetter... 2 summers ago flowers... now this summer- houses!
I am really eager to see what you come up with.
Not sure the houses will be a "trend" but hopefully it will be fun. You will get the first "peek."
Thanks.
