Sweet Wishes Window Card by Lynn Dionne

 Happy Wednesday Ai Fans!!!


Watch video tutorial here!!!

Let's create a sweet window card today using the Ai Sweet Wishes Set (4848) and the Ai Easter Chicks Set (5401). We can stamp our images using a white pigment ink and then emboss them with the Hero Arts White Satin Pearl powder. The pearl embossing powder gives this wreath and the other images such a soft elegant look!

Using the coordinating die from the Sweet Wishes set we can die cut out the center of the wreath to create an opening for the front of our card. We will need to cut the opening in the front panel and the card itself. I will show you exactly how to do this in today's video!

Next, we can color the images with the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens in the following colors: Blender, Tea Rose, Lt Carmine, Yellow, Mustard, Pale Green, Lt Green.

Now we can use the coordinating dies, our detail scissors, an Xacto knife and cut our images. Let's also cut a little slit in the chick so that we can place the individual rose in the chick's hand/wing! We will be using some foam squares to pop-up the bow which will really complete this wreath nicely.

For a pretty background we will use a Hero Arts Blending Brush and the Hero Arts Key Lime Fizz ink to add some color around the edges of the panel. We will also spatter this panel with that same ink!

Let's also cut another panel for the inside of the card using some Kiwi cardstock. We can blend this and spatter it the same way.

Our sentiment will say "Wishing you every bloomin' thing!" and we will die cut this using the Ai Nested Square Dies (5725). The sentiment is from the Ai Mrs. Set (5405). We can add some white stitching around the sentiment using a white gel pen. This will give our sentiment a cute look! I'll tell you a little secret about the sentiment choice and change in the video...shhh!

Finally, let's add some Hero Arts White Pearls to the wreath for added bling and dimension. This white pearl matches the white satin pearl powder perfectly!

Thank you so much for joining me today!  Have a fun and crafty day!!!

A very pretty card. Thank you for sharing that you changed your mind on which saying you decided to use and how you made the change. From looking at the card I would never know you had made a change to it. I think the penned stitch lines made the difference.
