This is the new hostess set (level 3) "Window Dressing"! Isn't it the cutest?
Well, I knew when I saw this set that the first card I did with it had to be an oval card. I stamped Lovely as a Tree on watercolor paper and cut out the windows so it could sere as the background...I'll have to make a mask in the future, but I like how this turned out. CE on the top window- not on the bottom since her little fingers wrap over the window base. All colored with markers. Edge of oval base sponged. Window popped up on dimensionals.
Tip: When photographing an oval card, use a large glue dot on the back bottom of the tent card to hold it up right where you want it. ;)
So what do ya think?

you are incredibly talented! I can't believe you already got your preorder and created such a great card too. I haven't even placed my order yet. This is the Level 3 set I was pondering about...now you have helped me make up my mind.
And of course...yet another way of using "Lovely as a Tree".
You should enter it in the monthly contest. It's such a winner.
thanks for sharing the new goodies so quickly!
