I made this card for a friend to give to her sister, Jo. It's a fall birthday so I went with pumpkins! And I got to use this beautiful recently purchased doorway die!
I stamped the background panel using Elegant Arches, cutting out the arch shape in the center with A2 Arches Die and because they all come from The Greetery, the Elegant Entrance Arches die fits perfectly inside the opening! The doors do open, but I chose to adhere the pumpkins, wheat sheaves and squash cut using the Autumn Harvest Die set onto the panel, so for this card, the doors do not open.
I printed the sentiment off my computer and added the sweet red acrylic heart. I sponged the colors onto the pumpkins and wheat using DOX inks and adhered them onto the card with foam dots.
I'm linking my card to the following challenge:
