Today I have made 2 congratulations cards for my sister-in-law and her husband and my nephew and his wife who are all about to move home. I used the Window Wishes stamp set to make the cards.
Colours used in this project are:
To recreate the window wishes cards you will need:
A card base – I used Starry Sky and Shaded Spruce – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛”
A matting layer – I used Evening Evergreen and Shaded Spruce – 5⅛” by 3⅜”
Basic White card – 5” by 3¼”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Basic White – ⅜” strip
I stamped the bare tree in Soft Suede ink onto the smaller panel of Basic White card.

The house was stamped in either Evening Evergreen or Starry Sky ink and the roofs added in Soft Suede.

The ‘ground was added using Crumb Cake ink and the fir trees with Shaded Spruce ink. Using Blending Brushes, I added a little Crumb Cake ink to the ground and Balmy Blue ink to the sky.

The sentiment from the Art Gallery stamp set was stamped in Shaded Spruce ink onto the strip of Basic White, trimmed down and added to the stamped panel with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

Love these cards Mo, very ‘classic’ in design I feel. Think I am leaning towards the blue being my preference, although both nice.
I think the blue one is my favourite as well Lyndsay x
