So one of the challenge themes at Hero Arts this month is window cards. For some reason I decided I needed to make a literal window so I could use the Winter Town stamp as the outside scene.
"The love of learning, the sequestered nooks,
And all the sweet serenity of books.
~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
The cozy indoor scene (I guess this could have been made for last month's challenge, too bad I didn't think of it then) was constructed using Basic Grey's Oxford papers and stamps from the Wish You Were Here clear set. I made wallpaper with Powder Layering paper and Dots and Flowers background stamp. The wainscoting is simply layered cardstock squares. I computer generated and printed the throw pillow/sentiment. The picture on the wall is from the PTI set On My Couch.
~ 2 Timothy 2:15 ~
"Work hard so you can present yourself to God and receive His approval.
Be a good worker, one who does not need to be ashamed
and who correctly explains the Word of Truth."
