Brenda has taken us to an awesome IC site today, Antique Farmhouse. There is much to inspire us! Thanks Benz for this inspiration site. I chose this metal wall art for my inspiration. Why? Because for some reason it reminded me of my high school home that my dad built. Our kitchen had a plaster accent wall that Mom had decorated with a wooden fork & spoon. So ... the texture of the dress made me think of this Sizzix ef. I changed the hello to happy & this will be a birthday card for a friend next week. I die cut the happy 3 times, off set & stacked. It really is straight on the brick! I braved the cold breeze to take an outside photo!
Off to watch the grands bowl, so will comment later & I have a 2nd card in mind. Not going to peek at the gallery yet!
Thanks for stopping by.

Super card for your inspiration, Karen. And, glad it brought back a memory to you. I would say this is a "happy" card.

Lovely CAS card that could be used for a multitude of occasions, Karen. The white painted "brick wall" captures your inspiration...plus the inspiration from your own past life.
