White on White Christmas Window

I've been joining the challenges over at Inkspirational almost from the beginning, and I've only missed joining while being away on holidays. So I was thrilled when Marina asked me to join as a  Guest Designer. I will be joining the team for 3 challenges - this being the first one.

The challenge this fortnight is to make a White on White card.

I made my card using a brick wall embossing folder and 3 different dies. The window is made with a Tim Holtz Sizzix die, the holly leaves die is from Memory Box  and the Christmas tree die came free with a magazine. I added some white pearls to the holly leaves and I popped the window on foam and also used acetate for the window glass.

I would also like to enter this card into these challenges:
1) Make it Monday - Anything Goes
2) Christmas Card Challenges - #49 Dimension
