4. Click EDIT. Click COPY
5. Go back to this thread. Click PASTE.
My thanks to Carla and Lisa for their great inspiring samples.
Happy Thursday everybody! I am visiting my dad today which means I won't be home till late this evening, but I am hoping to be able to come and take a peek through all your windows on my journey home, since I'll have free WiFi. Happy stamping...or die-cutting...I really wanted to make a little scene with a window box full of flowers and pretty coloured shutters but inspiration was totally lacking :-(.
Used your challenge to make my last Christmas card(perhaps) for next year's stash. Hard to get out of the mode once I've been in it for so long. : ) Thanks.
Sabrina- awesome challenge, allowed me to use the cool recycled dp from my friend Kathy the stamper and her buddies. Made a "window frame" with a reverse die of holiday dp, and added "window trim" with some dotted washi tape. Used a tag/cord combo for my sentiment. Here's It's Santa!

Sabrina, your wonderful challenge got two ideas going, so here are my two cards. Peace on Earth Sunrise
Thanks for the inspiration! From the lovely cards in the gallery, you've inspired others too!
I am not good with windows, so I thought I would use this cityscape as it has a lot of windows! Tough one Sabrina - but challenging and fun!

My intention was to use this as a birthday or feminine friendship card BUT then I remembered my kids most always give me department store gift cards for Christmas so this may well turn into a thank you card instead . . . . My Window card - TFL :
I've been focused more on clearing out the stamp space, rather than creating, but I needed a birthday card and this challenge was perfect for the stamp set I wanted to use.
