I found this neat tutorial on SCS for a recessed window card, or shadow box style card…and gave it a go. This card is for a dear friend of ours who turns 50 on Friday…He and his family are about the most wonderful people you could meet. I really love this style of card, next time I make one I will make the window deeper I think. The supplies are all CTMH except the number stickers. I used the Game On paper pack. Sentiment stamps are CTMH as is that birthday cake. I originally had the whole cake black..but the number 50 didn’t show up well…so I restamped the center of the cake in bamboo and added it. There is some faux stitching around the outside. Here is a link to the video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HdFpXaor-ts&feature=related
Well, have a wonderful evening and as always..enjoy!

Love the card. I made one probably last year or earlier this year and decided if I made another one I would score the top twice with a 1/4 inch seem so it would fold flat. I am still in the Christmas mode, but I know I need to get into the other seasons and reasons for cards.
Wow, this is just gorgeous Sarah! I love everything about it!
Awesome card!! Love the 50 right on the cake!!!
What an awesome card!!! That glittery 50 takes the cake. ;)

Fantastic card! It's great that you are trying new and different (to you) techniques on your cards. It sure makes the creative process fun, doesn't it?
