This shadow box card is my submission to Brenda's (Benzi) Inspiration Challenge for last Saturday. She selected a wonderful site for the challenge. I selected this card as my inspiration.
The card inspired me to create a shadow box when I saw the red front door. I decided to create a shadow box using Lawn Fawn's Christmas Dreams Stamps and Shut the Front Door Dies to give the effect of stepping into a room decorated for Christmas as you pass a red door, as seen on the card.
The lights inside are turned off, thus it is difficult to see inside. Please do not be concerned as there are other photos on my site that will provide a complete appreciation for the card.
I am grateful for you stopping by and leaving a comment.

This card truly warms my heart, Bev!! My two new (to me) pups love heat and warmth. I don't have a fireplace, but I know they would park themselves right in front of it if I did! They have to make do with heated beanie bags or a sunny spot by the window.
This shadow box card is a remarkable slice of life Christmas design, and I love it!
