Good Monday Morning!
Today I am sharing with you my very first post as a new member of the Design Team at the Dies R Us Inspirational Blog. YAY!
My first card uses the fantastic Large Madison Window Set, by Poppystamps.
I die cut the window and window box out of white card stock, the flowers from pink and yellow and the vines from 2 different shades of green. Flowers and vines I cut several times to fill that glorious window box with pretty Spring posies. Behind the window I placed some Polka Dot Designer Paper to mimic wallpaper and added a piece of lace as my curtain, and Vellum for my pane of glass. This was all mounted on fun foam, giving the window scene some depth and dimension. Assembled my flowers and placed in the window box. Some have pearl centers some have little seed beads. Brick Embossing Folder tinted with a bit of Antique Linen ink for my house. The addition of the sweet little house sentiment.
For my second card I used the same exact die set.
I've always wondered what would be on the other side of window scene cards.
I created this in the exact same manner, only from inside the house looking out. Polka Dot Designer Paper for my wallpaper and white bead board with chair rail, which was made by scoring the white card stock every 1/4". Tree image stamped, Vellum and lace added to complete my scene. Again, mounting all on fun foam. This time I found the window box would make a perfect place to stamp my sentiment. Mini Candy Dots for accents.
Sentiments from Gina K Designs, Home Is and Home Tweet Home.
I love that this die set has everything you need to create wonderful rooms with views. ONE die set, Large Madison Window Set, by Poppystamps.
Thanks so much for stopping by, see you soon!
Enjoy~~

ReplyDeleteBoth of your window cards look great, and I love how you did the same scene from both points of view. Very creative!!! Congratulations on your new post, and have fun with it!!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your news! You will be a wonderful and creative addition to the team. So proud to know you. Love both cards as you take us from the outside to the inside of a warm and inviting card. See, I said you are creative.
ReplyDeleteOh, Donna - how do you think up your designs? I know I've asked that before... this one is exquisite! Summer theme inside and out which capture the imagination and reveal the pretty things we enjoy in the season. We have lots of large windows, and I savor the view from each room no matter what I'm doing. It's wonderful being surrounded by nature, and you've captured that peaceful element in both cards. Donna, I DOUBLY admire that you were able to manipulate those delicate, tiny blooms and vines! Hope your week is extra happy! hugs, de
