I decided to try and make a Mini Blind card, complete with working blind and decorative valance. I will say it was quite a hit with the older population. lol Designer Papers by Nicole, Floral. The 'mini blind' measures 2 3/8 x 3 inches and is scored at every 3/8 inch. I checked out Youtube and found this VIDEO, Diane is quite helpful.
I added some beads to my ribbon, but you could simply tie it off. The window is die cut using Spellbinders Large Labels and then the frame was made by nesting 2 dies together. MFT Notched Border created the valance.
Gina K Designs stamp sets; Home Tweet Home and Spring Has Sprung. Images colored with Copic Markers. Lots of Stickles on the water in the birdbath. I chose that image so when Sally looks out her window of her new home (which is magnificent and cleans like a dream!) she can feel Spring creeping in on her and all the possibilities that lie ahead.....new adventures, a fresh start!
Spring to me has always meant, rebirth....new beginnings, a clean slate, nothing feels better than that.
To your fresh start and new beginnings!
Enjoy~~
