My house has white wooden siding with a blue front door. I always put a wreath on the door - lots of greenery and lots of holly berries. So I made a card to represent that:
I did a background using a striped embossing folder, then die cut a blue front door.
The wreath is made with bits of various green dps using the Martha Stewart pine branch die, with each punched piece cut in half as I needed to make a very small wreath. I used a circle die cut with two Nesties as the base to glue the punched pieces to.
I used some whole punched pieces for the swag above the door. Lots of red gemstones were added to represent holly berries, and a larger pale gold gemstone is the door handle.
A banner die cut with a red vertical sentiment finishes it off.
Thanks, Bonnie, for a great Merry Monday challenge that was a lot of fun to do!
