Thankful

Hello everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful Halloween, and have not gained too many pounds from all the candy! Time to relax now and concentrate on this beautiful Fall weather we are having here in Alabama! I know some of you have experienced a freakish and early snowfall, and I hope you are all well and warm. This card was inspired by a stamp set that I purchased from Close To My Heart called Remarkable Wreath. It has different seasons in it so you will probally be seeing it again. I already have an idea for Christmas! Anyway, I decided to hang it on the door this time. I stamped the twigs and then the leaves, and tried to give it a watercolor feel. Then I fussy cut it and, popped it and hung it. Added a bow and shimmered up the windows with some perfect pearls. You can't see the pearls very well. For some reason they just don't photograph well. I left the inside of the card blank so that I could add a sentiment at a later time. Thank you all so much for your comments on my cards! I look foward to hearing from you always! Thanks for looking!

So glad you found time to create. I love this card. The front door has great details....that doorknob reminds me of the glass knobs that used to be in my Dad's house. I love your wreath too. It came out gorgeous. Looks like it was lots of work, but so worth the effort. Love the details...the panes of glass you added by the door...the plate under the knob....all so perfect and really make this one amazing. Love it!
