Instructions: Cut a piece of white cardstock at 6" x 12", score and crease along the long side to make a base card of 6" x 6". Cut the 6" x 6" panel from the paneled paper with the cardinals on the top left corner. Add Dries White Glue and Frosting Powder to the snow on the trees. Align the panel to the front of the card and using the centre die from the Botanic Windows die cut the window panel. Die cut another piece of patterned paper with deer in the snow and using the front card as a template adhere to the inside of the card. Cut a piece of clear acetate 3 1/2" x 5" and adhere to the opening on the front of the card. Adhere the patterned piece to the front of the card using Dries Clear glue.
Die cut the window and the patterned centre out of white cardstock. Die cut just the outer edge of the window and adhere to the previously cut window. Adhere over the window opening.
Stamp the gate from the HCPC-3746 Festive Gate stamp with Teal Zeal ink and die cut with the coordinating die. Sponge the edges with the Teal Zeal ink and trim the right side. Add to the right of the card with foam tape. Score along the gate hinges on the left of the die cut to create a gate to open. Adhere the fence to the left side using foam tape. Apply Frosting Powder with dries clear glue on the gate and fence for a frosted look.

Adhere the lamp to the back of the gate on the right. Add the cardinals and twigs over the Botanic Window with foam squares.
