Here is what I came up with. I used Sweet Christmas Wishes, Christmas Door and the ODBD Custom Window Die by Spellbinders. The card stock is Bazzill and the cream is Papertrey, the designer paper is Websters Pages (Waiting for Santa/Sweet Season combo pack). The yellow layer is run through the CB with the Distressed Stripes folder. I colored the image on ivory cs and colored with Copics, then cut out and adhered to my Websters pages background I had created to simulate wallpaper. I then cut the window die twice so I could pop it up for some added depth, using tiny dimensionals. I used my Score Buddy on the 1/8" lines to score my shutters. I added a Memory Box Meridian Border as a curtain behind my window, and also as a border at the bottom, and I cut the Memory Box Flowering Tree out of green and red scraps, snipping off the red flower parts to add to the green tree and greenery I added around the window. I finished off with some tiny gold Recollections pearls. The sentiment is from Christmas Door and I matted that with more of the green scraps used for the tree. Here are the ODBD sets I used:
And the custom die:

Oh Grace, this is gorgeous! All the beautiful little touches you put on it are perfect. I love all of it!
omgoodness, Grace.. what an awesome scene you created!!!
Grace, I really, really love this scene through the window. I am seriously considering this stamp set for that reason - and I think I could use it for scrapbooking thanksgiving as well! And Christmas cookie baking... (not that I've been thinking about it -- or even worse, lusting in my heart for it! :() )
Thanks for the beautiful scene.

This is so amazing, Grace! Love the rich colors and your coloring of the indoor scene looks so real I had to look twice to make sure it was not a photo. Wonderful Christmas card!

What a gorgeous card! Love all of the little details!
What a beautiful, cozy scene. Thanks for the inspiration.
Now that I see this card, I am convinced you have a little bit of a miniaturist in you. I do miniatures as well as paper crafting and I had a suspicion when I saw your Smooth Sailing card but this one has all the earmarks of a miniatures scene!! I have a kitchen table almost identical to this card in a one-inch = one-foot scale. Sorry about the yackety-yak.. It is a delightful, cheery card and I love it!!
your card is an absolute masterpiece, grace!! your beautiful little scene just makes me want to step inside for a visit!!
Love this window scene and the embossed background.
WOW! what an amazing card! Love it!
Grace
what a delightful card. I love the border nad the feeling of warmth you get from it.
Hi Grace,
Another beautiful card. The scene is so real and brings back beautiful memories of my granny's and mom's holiday prep tables.
Thanks again for sharing.
Oh, my goodness !!! This is so over the top beautiful AND clever. The detail ! I am so in awe of your beautiful cards.
Grace, your "window" card is over the top with attention to detail, absolutely fantastic!
I can't imagine the amount of time it took to make that, but thanks for doing it. That card is just gorgeous!
