Rosh Hashanah Card
Rosh Hashanah Card

L’shana tova everyone. A “shout out” to all my friends for Rosh Hashanah. May everyone have a truly sweet, prosperous and harmonious New Year!  And for all of us, may we all “Be Good and Do Good” over the next year!

I am late with today’s post  because I was waiting to see what would happen with the Global Design Challenge this week. I was all excited to join it once again!

When I saw the card template, my first impulse was to go wild with some DSP, literally, with the “Go Wild” paper pack. Once I had the card constructed, I needed a sentiment.  I had originally wanted to design a Rosh Hashanah card for today, but that idea sort of evaporated yesterday.  But this card made me think, how can I make this into a Rosh Hashanah card? Whenever I am perplexed for a sentiment, I sit down with my lovely Stampin Up catalogs to see if anything sparks an idea. Well, of course the “Oh What Fun” set in the Holiday occasions did that for me.  The rest was just excitedly searching for the pieces to finish it!  Truly, oh what fun it was! So this is my card to everyone as well as my entry for this weeks project GDP#002 over at the Global Design Project. Follow the link to see what everyone else is doing and to join in yourself!
