Christmas Window Scene

Here are a couple more cards that I made with my Grand Madison Window die.  This die was a birthday gift from my family, and I have had a lot of fun creating different cards with it, some looking outside, and these ones looking inside.



In this one (above) I stamped the tree using Tim Holtz Walnut distress ink, and heat embossed with clear embossing  powder, then coloured with green Copics.  used copics and sponging to add colour in the background of the tree.  When dry embossing the background brick wall, I first inked the embossing folder with black craft ink.  The curtains are made using some lace from the fabric store.  I've added red liquid pearls to the nose of the deer.


In this second card, I stamped the tree using green ink, and then sponged green colour over it, and then just added colour to some key ornaments with Copics.  The rest is pretty much the same as the other one.

I'm entering these cards in the following challenges:
 Flourishes - Winter Inspiration
 Christmas Card Challenge - Bows
Jingle Belles - Holiday Creatures
ABC Christmas Challenge - U is up to you
Totally Paper Crafts - Christmas
Hiding in my Craft room - Die Cuts
