As a kid we use to attend the midnight Christmas service at Church. They had hand bells and beautiful windows and everyone was dressed up in their best clothes. We got to open 1 gift before church and it was a new outfit to wear to church.
I am trying to use up my old Heartfelt Creations kits and this one was perfect for the challenges.
Sponged the layers with mauve and blue and sponged the flowers and leaves with different pinks and greens. Shaped and layered the flowers. Popped the window on dimensionals and layered. Finished with stickles.
I would love it if you would check out my Blog: Shoe Girls Cards. Thank you for looking!

Lisa, this is absolutely gorgeous. Amazing cathedral window, with beautiful framing. I love the outside view too, as well as the pretty poinsettias. Great non traditional colours and dimension.

Gorgeous window you created! Love your Christmas memories! I have similar memory of the church bells at Christmas and stained glass windows!
Thanks for playing!
