Are you looking for a new card technique? How about a “peek-a-boo” window card.

No, “peek-a-boo” doesn’t mean it’s for a baby; just that it has a window. In fact, the one I made today is for a guy.

Peek-a-boo Window

I began with a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.  Then, I cut a piece of Beauty Of The Earth Designer Paper, 4 1/4″ X 5 1/2″ (the size of the card front), and backed it with Thick Basic White Cardstock for thickness. After letting the glue dry a bit, I used the largest Stitched Rectangles Die for cutting.

Next, I used a smaller Stitched Rectangles Die, 1 1/4″ X 3 1/4″, to cut a window. To raise the panel, Foam Adhesive Strips were placed on the back, all around the edge, and window.

The tree that’s peeking through the window was created with two Beauty Of Friendship Stamps. The trunk & limbs were stamped in Early Espresso Ink, and the leaves were stamped in Old Olive Ink. Then, a Beautiful Trees Die was used for cutting, and I attached it to the card front with Dimensionals, prior to attaching the panel.

You can see the tree die in the first photo, and the entire set in my Product List below.

I decided to go with a small, simple square for the sentiment. “Hello” is from the Beauty Of Friendship Stamp Set, stamped in Early Espresso Ink, and cut with an Ornate Frames Die.

The sweet bird is also a Beautiful Trees Die, which cuts two birds at the same time. This little bird was cut from Crushed Curry Cardstock. Isn’t it cheery?

I was inspired by TGIF.
