Hi there!
I could not resist the inspiration photo over at Fusion card challenge ...because...yellow π ... and a
door !
Whenever we travel, I always find myself taking pictures of doors . I love them especially if they are colorful like the one in the picture !
I need loads of 'miss you' cards ... because I miss my family and friends far away so much and there are no indications of us travelling to South-Africa soon of course due to the Covid situation.

I used :
- Take-me-home digital stamp set from Graciellie Design
- Zig markers
- Foam squares for dimension
- Craft knife
This sweet and cozy little cottage doesn't need much to make a beautiful card. But to add some interest, I decided to open up the door, by cutting along three of the edges , using a craft knife.
I also added a little 'doormat' sentiment inspired by the sketch that goes with the inspiration photo.
I scribbled with my yellow Zig marker/s on a piece of acetate, spritzed it with water and painted the stripes for the background freehand using a broad paintbrush.

Thank you so much for visiting me today!

Wow, this is such an adorable scene and such a wonderful take on the photo! This coronavirus has really disrupted so many lives and I'm sorry you are unable to travel as you would like! I always love seeing your cards in our gallery and am glad you were able to play along with us at Fusion!
ReplyDeleteThat such a beautiful card! Love the color combo you used.
ReplyDeleteI can really relate with what you feel... I cannot go visit my folks also in Indonesia due to this situation. I hope next year will be better. Hugs π
Wonderful card, and I too adore colored doors! Your card is perfect, especially since we'd all LOVE to return to life as we once knew it...
ReplyDeleteI love your card, Hannelie! Yellow has long been one of my favorite colors. I love doors, too. More than 20 years ago we visited St. Paul de Vence, an old walled city in France, and I took many photos of beautiful old doors. The photo developing company somehow gave my photos (and their negatives) to someone else and theirs to me. Talk about a bummer! I guess I should just go back to France and visit St. Paul de Vence again.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry you are unable to see your family, Hannelie. I know how much you miss them. This card is a nice way to tell someone just that. I love the yellow door that actually opens. My favorite color. I live in a yellow house, but our door is natural.
ReplyDeleteAdding the opening to your door is such a fun touch and adds so much to this gorgeous card! Thanks so much for joining us at Fusion.
