My shutters are more a teal blue, I've tried and tried to get them looking right...replaced with a somewhat better picture.
Base sponged with Evergreen Bough.
Main panel was put through the Wizard with a Fiskars brick texture plate inked with Weathered Wood. I cut the window from it, and then embossed the window frame with red. It has acetate, then the little lace curtain. Instead of the dog in the photo looking out through the window, I have a cat looking in - thanks, Rosalia!
A flower border along the bottom, and then my vine has Flower Soft blossoms and the leaves are cut from an experiment with the Magic Snowflake technique which failed.

This is just fabulous! Love the kitty, of course, and the sweet flower bed. The vine is amazing, I need to look up what failed technique produced those leaves!

Can't believe you referred to the leaves on the tree as a failed technique try! They are gorgeous, as is the scene recreated from your old photo - the brick wall, shutters and the cat peering in the window!
I was almost tempted to do a card with one of the pictures I took of doors in Ireland 20 years ago, on our way to the airport to fly home - loving the colorful shutters and window, to say nothing of the wonderful garden at the base of your card - brings back some wonderful memories of our trip to the Emerald Isle!
