For today's challenge we had to use half an image. I chose to use half of this girl to look out of my tea "shoppe" window. Since I don't have the window box die to match the window I sort of devised my own..put flowers in it and it became a "window box"! I added a bit of curled wire to imitate some trailing foliage.

This is wonderful. I love that EF - looks like old weathered siding, and the lace curtains are such a nice touch. Your flower box is perfect with the trailing ivy. Really sweet card!

Polly, this is a small paper sculpture with a story! LOVE the interior tearoom scene with the Victorian lady looking at us through the window. The window is fantastic and that "sprung springy thingie" is TOO cute. I'm glad you created an "interior" scene....many who use this die give us an "outside" window and then we look through it to another "outside" scene....always seems a little strange. Your cards are always a special addition to any gallery!
