Hello friends! Today on the Art Impressions blog I have two cards featuring the Peace Window. The Window stamp set line is really fantastic with so many heartfelt sentiments around the windows.
This stamp would be a good one for a sympathy card or for someone that is going through the challenges life can throw at us. These Window sets help you create beautiful cards that don't take a long time. I actually made two cards--the sets are so easy to use!
For this card I stamped onto Strathmore Bristol smooth card stock and colored it with various watercolor markers, listed below. I die cut it out with the largest of the Tag Double Stitched dies.

You might be wondering how I have a layer for the tag since there is only one die of this size in the set. Here are the steps:
- Put the tag die onto a piece of card stock and trace around the outside edge of the die with a pencil.
- The pencil line will be your cut line.
- Color about ¼" inside your pencil line with a coordinating color.
- Cut out. I used my paper trimmer for the straight lines and hand cut the curved corners.
- Trace the tag hole onto the cut out tag layer and use a hole punch to cut.
Here is my second card.
I stamped the image onto Strathmore watercolor paper with Versafine ink. This set is so easy and quick to watercolor. Just be sure to use a smaller brush. I used a number 2 round brush and painted it using colors from the Altenew 36 Pan set (colors listed below.) This was cut out with a Square Double Stitched Die. I created an ombre wash of blue on a 4" x 5-¼" watercolor paper with a ½" flat brush for the card panel. I cut it with a Rectangle Double Stitched die.
I always appreciate you stopping by and I thank you! Have a great week!
