Today's card shows a picture of Grampa reading to his grandchildren - maybe the Christmas story from the Bible...
I used grey cardstock to resemble brick mortar and ran it through a Spellbinders Bricks and Bark EF; the bricks were dabbed with different colors of red ink. The window is a Poppy Stamps Small Madison Window die; foliage is from a Martha Stewart Pine Branch punch; bow is made of raffia ribbon, and the picture is printed from the internet. The sentiment is stamped with a Sweet 'n' Sassy Christmas stamp and heat embossed with gold embossing powder, then cut from a Sizzix die that came in a package with 17 different sized dies.
Here's the card:
Many rich blessings,

Romans 10:9-11
If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is by believing in your heart that you are made right with God, and it is by confessing with your mouth that you are saved. NLT

Every so often someone does something you wish you had thought of first. Your use of a window die to give a peek into this cozy Christmas scene is a brilliant concept. Thank you for sharing your Christmas project with all of us at Crafty Boots Challenges.
