This card was made in honor of Queen Sabrina aka Cook22. I've known Sabrina's work for quite a while here on SCS, so it came as no surprise that she was chosen for this honor today! I was inspired by her beautiful "hole in the wall" card found here: TLC256 Hole in the Wall by Cook22 at Splitcoaststampers
I took a serious shortcut in CASE-ing her card and used an embossing folder to create the brick wall instead of cutting out all those bricks by hand! After embossing, I swiped the panel with my white ink pad to create the look of old bricks. I stamped the silhouette images next, then cut a window out and stamped the sentiment in the window. It's quite different from her beautiful card, but her card definitely gave me the idea to create this one!
Thanks for stopping by, and enjoy your reign Queen Sabrina

I cant believe what you've gone and created today, Carol. Your brick wall is fabulous with that white highlighting. Oh wow, you had me at hello with this one girl. It's just drop dead gorgeous.

Oh wow - I didn't know Tim had a brick wall in his range. I love this - I'll be adding it to my wish list. That red brick wall is just great - we have a lot of buildings like that around Dublin, many with weeds growing along the edge.
