I was inspired by the beautiful brownstone buildings in Manhattan and Home Made was the perfect set for my project.
I stamped and embossed all the windows on PTI Stamper's Select Vellum, cutting each one out and then gluing on paper-pieced shutters and then adhering each to a piece of vanilla cardstock (some with pretty curtains!) for a lighted glow. As a wintry touch, I sprinkled a bit of Fun Flock on the rooftops and the sill of each window. More details are included in detail views.
