Summer Porch...

Oh how I long for the summer breezes to pass thru my front screen door! It won't be long, thank goodness! I have seen a few out in blog land making these adorable little screen door cards, so I wanted to try to make my own. So off to the hardware store to buy a roll of screen, and then I searched thru my templates to find something that resembles a patterned screen door. I had to cut out the squares with a knife and then add the screen in between.
My little Hanglar is watercoloured with Stampin Up inks. I left the inside blank so Icould write something inside!
I hope you have a wonderful day and that warm breezes are passing thru! Have a wonderful day!

What an adorable card and it conjures up great memories of having that screen door open. I don't have any screen doors - not a one, but I wish I did. Right now I have one window open and I'm enjoying the birds all calling each other to come play. Won't be too long before we'll have to be all shut up because of the heat and humidity. Guess there's no perfect place. Anyway, your door is awesome. Great job, and your little Hanglar looks so happy - she's too cute.
