My parents are moving to a new home and wanted a card to send out to people to let them know their new address. I took a picture of their door so the card would resemble their actual door. I ended up making two different cards and they can choose which one they like best. I couldn't find brick paper so I used my trusty scorer and a sanding block to make the brick pattern stand out a little more. The wreath on the second card and the bush on the first card is made with a McGill branch punch.
Note to self...Make sure you have enough of the colors you need BEFORE you start assembling the cards. I cut out all of the doors and the top part of the panels and began to assemble them before I realized that I didn't have enough for ALL the panels. A frantic search to many stores left me empty handed. I ended up making five completely new doors so everything would match. Can you say learning experience?
I got the inspiration from a card I saw on Splitcoast Stampers. You can check out the blog here. http://www.b52contstance.blogspot.com.
