Silver Wedding Window Card

Today's card is another window card.  Making these are SO easy with the proper die & die cut machine!  Here I used a Spellbinder's Nestability die with my Big Shot machine.  I simply glued my background paper to the card, then ran it through my machine to cut the window. For more information on how to do this check my post from a couple of weeks ago

Because the background paper is a non-porous metallic silver, I used StazOn ink to ensure my stamping came out decently.

The black around the edge is a border I cut out of adhesive-backed vinyl with my Silhouette electronic cutting machine.  But I know there are places that sell outline stickers that would work well for this too.

What shows through from the inside is actually the cut-out from the card I showed two weeks ago - finished off with a Dazzle sticker from Paper Wishes, a "Peel-Off" Border sticker and a stamp from an Inkadinkadoo Wedding clear stamp set. You can see it a bit better here:
