I worked with the inspiration from day 2-Julie Embersole's design. Basically I worked to create a window with multi-layers. I started with inking a watercolor paper for the tag base and then misting with Heidi Swapp's gold lame mist. For the window background I blended Tim Holtz distress inks. To add dimension to the background I inked an additional layer the paper stencil leftover from the foliage die cut. With enthusiasm I worked with my brand new dies–Memory Box Fresh Foliage is a muti-stemmed die which provides lots of opportunities to use it in parts. I spent considerable time playing with different possible window arrangements. The Elizabeth Craft Designs 709-Birds die also provided several choices. This set provides a solid bird die as well as the left and right facing birds with intricate cuts and two different wings. I almost got side-tracked into making a 3-d bird ornament…but instead put it on my future project list. For now I decide to make a high contrast bird. With the with window complete I embellished with Memory Box's Frosty Border, crystal stickles, Stampendous holographic mini stars and finished with a MFT sentiment.
