Card base Soft Suede with a layer of Cajun Craze, window is Very Vanilla. The brick wall started as Very Vanilla embossed with Brick Wall EF then sponged with Crumb Cake, Cajun Craze and Cherry Cobbler. Sentiment from Christmas Pines.
Made the window as a shaker box. The Tree is the single large pine from Lovely as a Tree, stamped 4 o4 5 times offset to make it wider. Sponged lightly with Crushed Curry and Cajun Craze for warm background glow, pearls were colored with Bic Permanent Markers and stuck to the tree inside the shaker box. Added a good pinch of the new mica flake glitter inside.
Rather than mount the shaker box on top, I recessed it by cutting an opening from the Brick wall/cajun craze underlayers so that I could push the back side of the shaker box through the opening. This left the front part of the window flush against the brick. Then I popped up the assembled brick wall/cajun craze/window piece onto the soft suede card base so it left the necessary clearance for the height of the shaker box and hides the foam edges of the box.
