I made this card for the new QFTD, which just happens to be Wendy! Then I went and saw what the requirements were for the challenge she posted for the Free for all and had to go back and tweak my card a tad so it would work for both challenges. Whew!....that's a long sentience!
I chose this card loosely for the layout but only if you flipped Wendy's card. Now if you aren't buying that, go to this card and imagine going through that beautiful door and seeing the scene on my card. Either way, somehow I cas'd a Wendy card. hehe
Briefly, I could hardly wait to use two new die cuts...one being that small window frame and the other the snowfall. My shelf sitters are from a part of Rubbernecker stamp. Coloring was done with bic markers.
So as not to "cheat", I ran a piece of cs through a cb folder before punching out the ferns and then colored them with an ink pad. That made sure that I had all 5 of the steps in the free for all.
Well, Wendy enjoy your reign as Queen. Thanks too for the great challenge. AND to all of you have a great weekend!.....TFL :0)

What a nice rich, brown window!! I love the little toys sitting on the window sill. Are those the liquid pearls in the two corners?? I like those too. :>)

Cathy, this is just adorable!! Don't you just love that window. Love your extended sill with cute little critters on it. Looks like a childs bedroom window!! Just to darling!! Speaking of children I trust you daughter is back to 100%! How about your sis, she seems to have dropped off of the edge of the (Split)coast....

This is the cutest ever, Cathy. What a sweet scene. Love your snowfall and those little animals look like they want to go out and play in the snow. Raise the window and let them out.

This card just grabbed at my heartstrings, it's like the little toys are waiting for their owner to come home. SO sweet!!
My favorite card in the gallery today! I just got this window die and haven't used it yet but you sure have inspired me.
