This month we would like to see some kind of window or tunneled
element in your creations. Think hollowed out books, multiple layers
with openings to see what has gone before, hidden flaps or windows that
when opened reveal a secret element. Just remember to create in one of
our preferred styles of vintage, shabby, mixed media, art journaling,
industrial, timeworn or steampunk.
I made a winter themed tunnel book for our challenge, building on all the fun I've been having making tunnel cards lately.
Here's the outside of the book, I just dyed a piece of Crinkle Ribbon to keep it closed. Tim Holtz's Mini Paper Snowflakes and Tree Line dies were used on the outside.
I'll have a step by step tutorial over at A Vintage Journey on November 15th with all the details and my how to so until then here are a few closeups.
Tree Line and Woodlands dies with Tim's Starry layering stencil.
Mini Swirly Snowflakes, Mini Holiday Greens and that wonderful buck from the Winter Wonderland die set.
More Tree Line die cuts in the background and the wreath around the buck's neck is from the Village Christmastime die set.
Hope you can pop by to see what the other Creative Guides made for the challenge and also hope that you'll be inspired to join in our Window On Your World challenge, can't wait to see what you create!
