Such a fun site for the Inspiration Challenge (IC679)..lots of pretty things for Christmas! After much browsing, I chose THIS lovely scene for my inspiration, though I turned it around & my scene is looking out instead of in. I'm also adding this to the WT717 Challenge to use a window.
To make my Christmas window, I die cut the window & also some of the Pine Tree Forest. I used some Picket Fence Distress spray on the navy bg for behind the window & also on the trees. I also used a white gel pen to add more snow to the trees & punched a white circle for the moon before attaching the window frame on top. The bg was embossed w/ a brick folder & some punched branches added above the window. For the Christmas tree, I stamped & colored 2 of them then layered them on top of each other for dimension.
Thanks so much for looking. Closeups, Copic colors & product links are on my blog: The Write Stuff

Julie, your inspired card is so beautiful! I love the gorgeous Christmas tree, brick embossed panel, and swag at the top of the window. The view outside is gorgeous too! Great card, Julie!

Your textures on this and layers just make this so lifelike. Into my favorites. The prettiest card ever.

Julie, I love that dimensional tree and how the branch falls over the sentiment. Ilove the brick textured wall and the swag above it. The outside scene is perfect too. Awesome card.
