Merry Monday #220

I'm just squeaking in with this card because the card I posted yesterday wasn't due until later and I should have posted this one.  It's for Merry Monday - How will you decorate your door?
I don't have a red door - wish I did, mine's  rust - and I usually hang a wreath instead of a swag but I had this vision and wanted to see it through.  t took a while to plan but I cut the sections with LF stitched rectangles, mounted the cut panel on black foam and put the inserts back.  The background is brick embossed and the greens are from a TH set of dies.  No room for a sentiment so it will all be inside.

Time's running out.  Thanks for dropping by.

Oh Bobby! You made this wonderful red door...Something I wouldn't even have the courage to begin! It turned out beautifully, too. And I do love the little swag with its berries. Absolutely gorgeous. Bev

Oh my gosh, Bobby, this is a stunner!! Your door is fabulous and I love the texture of the bricks. And I learned something new - had no idea that's called a swag but I really like it especially with that sweet bow. This is a winner in my book!

So, I got my wish straight away, Bobby ... I'm guessing this is the card you mentioned before! It's brilliant and so clever ... the dimensional bright red door against the house brick walls is fabulous ... and that swag ... wow, it's luscious ... verdant and with so much depth ... gorgeous! Hugs, Anita :)
