Christmas in JulyChallenge #2


This is my first entry! This is a 5 x 7 card using white cardstock.
The "glass" for the window is transparency imprinted with the cuttlebug folder "snowflakes."
The snowman and the trees and "Peace"come from the "Joys of the Season" cricut cartridge.
Background paper and trees are from K and Co. "Santa's Little Helper"stack. Thanks to Mary at Cardstv for all your inspirations!

  3. Thank you Sophiesmama and coachfans for your comments! Here's how the window was made:
    Page 71 in the Joys of the Season's cartridge handbook, I made the "garland" on the card function,7". I cut the garland out and now you have the "window". It took me a while to figure out how to make the panes. I decided to make the valance with the Martha Stewart's lace punch and the scraps left after you punch are perfect to finish the window. A simple transparancy run through the cuttlebug and, viola, a window.
