Window cards



Hello friends,

Today I have a couple of cards for you. Recently I relieved a lovely card from a dear friend of mine (thanks Penny) It was so pretty I just had to CASE it. I did switch it up slightly because that's just what I do.

Both the birds and flowers are stamped on the inside of the card and are visible through the window. The card I cased (shown below) does not have coloured card stock layered beneath the window cut out. For my cards I decided to add some. I like how it draws the eye to the flowers and birds and makes them the focal point. I hope you like them.

Here's a picture of the card I CASED (made by Penny O'Dell)


Thanks for stampin by,
Laurie

    1. Hi Tammie, I use Spellbinders dies. The nestabilies ones. You can also use Stamping Up circle punches but the window might be a little smaller. Thank you for the sweet compliment. Hugs!

    1. Thanks TampaStamper. This window card wasn't one that I made for the contest. I just fell in love with the idea and had to make some. I have more to post that I made for the contest but the photos are stored on my laptop which died and I can't access them until I purchase a new lap top and have the computer guys retrieve them. I'm currently shopping for a new one.
