I made this with the Nov 1 ODBD release, Warm Wishes.
I used the Custom Window Die, made especially for ODBD by Spellbinders, and I also used the Crocheted Background for my curtains. In this release there is also an inside scene that works perfectly with the window die cut.
For the front, I cut the window frame out of textured brown card stock scraps, and sponged the edges for dimension. The diorama itself is 4" x 6". (If you use the diorama instructions here on SCS just adjust your dimensions accordingly) After cutting and scoring my designer paper (BasicGrey Wassail), I determined the middle and cut the hole for the window. I then adhered acetate to the back and using Diamond Glaze I added crystal glitter (MS) to the window panes and let dry. The curtains were cut from some card stock that I had stamped with the Crocheted Background. I sponged them while still in the die, and again around the edges when removed.
The middle layer is made by stamping the image once, masking and stamping another tree and coloring with Prisma Pencils and Copics. I used more of the glitter on the branches though you can't see it that well... it really glistens in the light! I then cut out the trees and adhered my middle layer. I punched an MS border around the top and used the left over part for the border at the bottom. It was really fun and I encourage you to give it a try!
