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.

Fusion - Old Door Charm

It's rather late in the day but I've had this card made for Fusion for a week now and have put off posting it.  If I don't do it now, I may miss the deadline so here it is.

Those of you who know me know I love old and rustic and so this door charmed me right off the bat and I set out to make my card right away.  It took some finagling but it turned out just like I wanted, something that hasn't been happening to me much since then.

I cut the door with my Cricut and then stamped and inked, and inked and crackled (with Distress Crackle Paint.  The background is SSS Smoke run through with my Bricked ef and then mounted on Slate cardstock.  Another piece of Slate was put behind the door where the sentiment from PTI (I found it!  I couldn't remember what set it was from when I was looking for it.) is embossed with Liquid Platinum.  I also used it on the brad door knob.  If I saw this in an antique shop, life size, I'd probably buy it.  No, not my card, the door in the inspiration photo.  :)

Good night all.  Thanks for stopping by.
