Through A Window

 
 
Hello crafters, Kirsten here, hope you're well. Preparations are in full swing for the Christmas part classes next week & I'm coming to the end of my samples for November's theme of 'Christmas Sparkle'.
 
Today I have two cards to show you, both made with this hugely popular die from Cheery Lynn.........
 
Chicken Wire Frame
 
(Available for pre-order)
 
I used it to make a window for the first card..............
 
 
With an Embossalicious embossing folder & some Hobby House pearl medallions on the front. I used Soft Purple Sparkle Medium through Imagination Crafts' The Clearing stencil for the inside..........
 
 
 
I then used the die to make a card blank, adding a piece of Hobby House Aqua Flakes patterned card on the inside & another, punched piece wrapped over the side. I applied Diamond Sparkle Medium through the Imagination Crafts Christmas Celebrations panel stencil & when the SM was dry, cut out the stars & glued them to the background with Cosmic Shimmer Dries Clear Glue........
 
 
 
The greeting is from the Woodware Clear Magic Patch Robin stamp.........
 
 
 
 

 This is a great die, I found that using a piece of ordinary copy paper as an extra shim gave a perfect cut.

  2. Love the peek-a-boo design it gives more interest to the cards and makes them very special.
