Peek-a-boo Window Card

Hello my friends! I have a fun card to share with you using the beautiful  Flower Shop 6x6 stamp set from Scrappy Tails Crafts. 
My inspiration came from my team member’s Deep Robbins recent project, you should check that out too! This appears to be a one layer card, but it has quite a few steps involved and was a blast to create!!!! How can you not love a Peek-a-boo Window Card?
 

I started off by partially die cutting the Flower Shop window die in the center of the card base so that the window panes would be “open”.

Then, I stamped and Copic colored the flower box window and the girl holding a bouquet of flowers.  After that, I die cut the images and began the process of building my scene.

To build the scene, I stenciled on some clouds with Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink. To give the illusion of grass, I blended Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide Ink onto the bottom of the card. Next, I stamped a sentiment from the same Flower Shop stamp set using Versafine Nocturne Ink. 

Once all of my ink blending was dry, I glued my window and a few sequins to the center of the card design. 

After completing the front of my card, I positioned the lady so that her face and her flowers were peeking through the window. I also blended Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxide Ink around her to make her pop!

At this point I just wasn’t sold on this design yet. I went back to what Sabrina always says… “adding acetate takes your cards to the next level making them more professional looking”. I then die cut another window frame and adhered an acetate window onto it and then sandwiched it between the existing one! I love that the acetate makes it look like a glass window.
