I recently got this stamp and die set from Dare 2B Artzy called “Window Greeting.”
I colored the image with Copic markers and then die cut it.
The background was made by smooshing some card stock in Hickory Smoke Distress Oxide ink, drying, and then embossing with a brick folder from Taylored Expressions. I used a paper distressing tool to rough up the edges before adhering it to a card base.
I would like to join in these challenges:
- Pammie’s Inky Pinkies #2511 – anything goes
- The Paper Shelter #630 – anything goes
- Passion For Markers #780 – add a sentiment
- Triple B Challenge – Birds, Butterflies, & Blooms
- Cardz 4 Galz #246 – Springtime

The distressed edges and brick-embossed background create such a beautiful vintage charm, and the coloring on the window stamp is so precise and vibrant. The entire composition evokes a cozy, springtime feel—truly inspiring!
Oh Mel … this is just gorgeous! LOVE that brick background and all your pretty window flowers!! Thanks so much for joining in the fun at our Triple B challenge! Good Luck and we hope you’ll come back often.
