Here's my card for the second challenge for the Summer CAS DT search. I started with Basic Grey cardstock that I "streaked" with Whisper White and River Rock ink to get the wood grain effect. I then cut the piece of wood grained cardstock with my Sizzix Window Die. I adorned the window with a flower (EK Sucess punch) which was embellished with a single pearl and a leaf and stem (SU Bird Punch). The Very Vanilla background piece was embossed with the Tim Holtz "Bricked" EF which was stamped with the "Thinking of You" sentiment before embossing. That piece was adhered to a Very Vanilla card base.

Congratulations.........and Good Luck. Love how you created the look of woodgrain for the pretty window die cut. The bg brick embossing gives a lovely added texture on this pretty card.
