ODBDSLC247 Floral Inspiration

Hello!  I love these new window dies from ODBD, especially the shutters.  I made my window scene using the Welcoming Window, Window Shutter and Awning, and Flower Box fillers.  I first made my a gray siding by cutting strips of half inch gray card stock.  I started at the bottom and started adhering my layers from the bottom up.  As it turned out, the last piece fitted perfectly!  



I then added my window and accessories.  The curtain inside is a small piece of from the Shabby Rose Collection and crimped.  The flowers were colored with watercolor pens and the shutters popped up with foam tape.  The welcome sign was made using paper from the same collection and the stamp set The Gate, propped up with an altered fence from the Gilded Gate Dies.





And please check out my other CT sisters for more wonderful inspiration:
