Wishing You A Beautiful Day
Hello there my crafty friends! I started this sweet window card by embossing a piece of white card with the Brick Wall embossing folder. Next I cut the Window die out of Gloss white card and added mounting foam to the back of it. I began working on the inside view of the window so I cut the Decorative Drapes die set out of striped blue paper from the Dots 'n Stripes paper pad. I used it as a valance at the top of the window, then added two thin strips as curtains. I cut the rocking chair, floor lamp, table and vase with flowers all from the Living Room die set. I cut the table out of silver card and used a silver paint pen on the floor lamp. I arranged all the elements in the room and glued them into place. I added the window scene to the top of the card. I added a strip across the brick wall and used plain white card below it. I cut the Wishing You A Beautiful Day sentiment out of the same decorative paper, then added it to a white shadow backing piece. I used mounting foam to raise it and added it below the window scene. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 3/4" x 9 1/4" in size. All for now, Sue x
