Well, I failed this challenge big time...I tried to do the box thing, yes the instructions were so very clear obviously correct as many others had uploaded their beautiful creations....but due to nerve damage in my hands I just couldn't do the 'fiddly' bit....I just love the look of these cards so went ahead anyway with this precut window card that I had been given...it is not 3D, but it is still a window!
The picture is a business card from the boutique that sells my cards, it is French Provincial with a touch of shabby chic, by the way the name of the shop is the 'SHABBY ATTIC'. I loved these cards and asked the owner if I could use a few to make some cards and she was happy with the idea....I am going there tomorrow...so this challenge has come at a good time for me!
Basicially I sponged around the window and the egdes of the card as well as some scalloped edging that I have, added some flowers (I love the colours of these flowers) and used an assortment of brads..along with the punched branches that Roxystamper so generously sent me!!
I am hoping that she likes this card - what do you think? Thanks for looking!

Linda, both your cards are fantastic! There are no failures in life - just stepping stones to other great adventures! No doubt the shop owner will love both of these too!
