Beautiful Window Scene Card

Hello crafty friends!!! Can you believe it is December?!! It is now only three weeks until Christmas! Which means we still have time to get our holiday cards made. Today I'm sharing my card that features the so fun and beautiful Lovely Layers: Window with the new Lovely Layers: Window Holiday Add-On.

Except for the sentiment, this entire card is die cut with an embossing folder background. I die cut all of the dies from the Lovely Layers: Window and Window Holiday Add-On from either white cardstock and some colored cardstock, with two exceptions. The warm yellow you see through the window was white cardstock inked using a yellow ink and a detail blending brush. I inked up a scrap of white cardstock with Festive Berries Distress Ink to use to die cut the tree ornaments and holly berries.

For the snow layers on the roof and balcony, I first die cut the snow dies with white cardstock. Then I used a palette tool to dab on Snowfall Distress Grit Paste. This will dry clear with some sparkle and a subtle crackle which adds to the icy feel, I think. If you don't have that paste, this one would be just as pretty.

I always print out the Layering Guides that are found in the products' description on the website. These are so very handy and makes gluing your die cuts very easy! When I am finished assembling the Lovely Layers, I store the guide with the product. All of the Window layers are adhere together with glue.

I added a layer to my A2 card base that I embossed with the Wood Planks 3D embossing folder. Then I adhered the window to the card with foam dots.

I thought this sentiment from the Sending Christmas Joy stamp set was perfect for this card. I stamped it and the Merry Christmas stamp with black ink and then cut them out with the coordinating Honey Cuts. I adhered the Merry Christmas sentiment with glue to the inside of the card. The other sentiment is popped up on the card front with foam tape strips.

I added a bit of shine to the holly berries with some Nuvo Crystal Drops that I still have in my stash.  Do you still have any of these?
