Ok, this is the first card I made for this challenge at The Play Date Cafe Challenge 97. Sorry for the lengthy post...I went a little crazy with the Black and White with a splash of red!
The door image is from Scroll Works and the wreath is from Skipping Stones Design.
The sketch for the first card was also inspired by Operation Write Home Stars & Stamps Birthday Bash Challenge-Day 2. For those of you who are not familiar with OWH, it is an organization dedicated to making homemade cards and shipping them to service men and women so they can send them home to their loved ones.
And this card reminded me of the cupcake tower in the inspiration photo.
My fave is the elegant front door with a gorgeous wreath! It reminds me of Christmas, just around the corner. :) Thanks for sharing your creativity with us at The Play Date CAfe, Barb!
ReplyDeleteThree beauties Barb! The front door looks so elegant, the cake with the pretty flourish above is wonderful and the sweet gingham ribbon sets off the shaggy dog perfectly!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards, Barb! Can't decide which one I like best! Did my email reach you? I got an error a few days after I sent you one! I just wanted to say that your card was sent shortly after Heather gave me your address! I hope it'll arrive every day! Hugs, Vanessa x
ReplyDeleteWow! Barb, I LOVE them all for different reasons! The wreath makes the first card so warm and welcoming. The cake is truly inspired by the photo, and the third card made me laugh with the fire hydrant! Every dog's dream! LOVE the ribbon you used on the last card!
ReplyDeleteOhhh I love them all, but that doggie one is my fave! Beautiful cards and fab splashes of red on all of them :) Thanks for playing this week at the Play Date Cafe!
ReplyDeleteOh Barb these are awesome! I love that door with the wreath and the wood embossing, but the cake and dog cards are adorable too! Love what you did with all of them!
