Tuesday Trio - New Horizons In The Moment #3

Third and last in my In the Moment, New Horizons & Welcoming Windows series... plus the round up shot...

Note that Welcoming Windows is retiring soon.... but is still available when I just checked... Oh and note that buying the 2 parts separately is cheaper than buying the bundle... Stamps here... Dies here...

Thanks to Tamara Bertram for her inspiration for this card... I love Tamara's more monochromatic card... but had to try out a night scene with shiny stars... 

Girl at a Double Window

Second in my In the Moment, New Horizons & Welcoming Windows series... Note that Welcoming Windows is retiring soon.... but is still available when I just checked... 

Simply die cut 2 windows and stick together... and trim a scrap of New Horizons papers to suit...

Ink up & stamp New Horizons trees and birds on the paper scrap... and then stick behind the window...

Ink up & stamp girl on White and then again on the back of some of the New Horizons papers... colour hair and arms on White with Stampin' Blends... fussy cut the paper hat, blouse and skirt & stick... then fussy cut the whole image... leaving out the wine glass this time...

Oh and apologies... for people that couldn't just click and go to Thursdays post... as I forgot to add a title!! So click here and there you go...two beautiful Blessings of Home cards care of friends...

Simplefor Sunday - New Horizons In The Moment

New Horizons meets In The Moment meets Welcoming Windows (retiring)... 

Love this simple restful little scene... 

And what a fabulous way to use your scrap strips from other cards...

Note that I have actually used it "upside down"... on purpose...

Sorry for being so brief... but technology is not on my side... I think my PC is now groaning at me from overwork over the years!!

As well as a lovely tray picked up from "Poundland"!! Though it did cost much more than £1....

Fun Fold Friday - Welcoming Window Bridge Fold Card

So as I was typing up the tutorials for the Welcoming Window class... I realised that I could make a few things easier to do on the Bridge Fold card... and so needed to take some step by step photos again...

So I made another card up... and added a bit of variety to my lovely flowers.... much more Spring like... just care of a few Marker Pens direct onto those lovely buds... Gorgeous!

The Tutorial PDF is now available... ending up as a whopping 19 pages worth... as lots of step by step photos... covering these 10 different cards and the different decorative elements...

Welcoming Window #14 - the last one...

Thought it was high time I brought the Welcoming Window series to an end... though I warn you that I still have a very long list of alternative ideas to test and make... so I should be back with more... but for now... a change is as good as a rest!

But before I start on todays card... click here to go to Saturdays post for the Crumb Cake one... for which I messed up the title and link when I posted so not many people saw it... 

So as I was making the double die cut cards.... I made some other alternatives along the way...

This one is the final Double Die Cut Card....

With the double die cut... and the shutters attached so they close over the window on the inside.... much like they would be in real life!

Note that I reveal "the how" in the Tutorials suite.... 

Welcoming Window # 13- Double Gatefold Card

A really simple Welcoming Window double gatefold card... 

Back to Crumb Cake sponged brick wall...

With Highland Heather or Misty Moonlight flowers in the trough... 

But which do you prefer?

The World outside Welcoming Window #10

Had to have a Welcoming Window view out onto the world outside... with leaves and flowers at the window... as well as the arrangements in indoor pots on the window shelf...

Complete with wallpaper care of the lovely Sale A Bration Paper Blooms papers... though anyone that knows me will know that I would prefer the white on blue flowery papers!!! But I fancied a change to the colour combination...

Geraniums on a French Barn...

 

Well that is what this Welcoming Window #9 card one reminds me of... which takes me down a lovely Memory Lane trip... 

I was very lucky as my parents owned a converted barn near Brantome in the beautiful Perigord in France... and this card really reminds me of that house...

Many a happy year of family holidays there... though sadly we all decided to sell it on about 10 years back... as the type of holiday we needed changed... but yes guess what would probably suit us more now! Hey Ho...

So Poppy Parade & Garden Green marker pens used for the geraniums... with Seaside Spray lightly brush blended onto the flower image to soften... 

The Crumb Cake die cut wood parts are all blended with Crumb Cake using the Blending Brushes too...
