For my card, I chose to use the small jar die to create my window instead of the usual circle or square. To make my flower embellishment, I used the stitched petals and leaf dies. I took my card a step further and, rather than leaving the "window" open, I added clear acetate to the jar and scored it so that it folds with the card.
I love the look of this and will likely use this card style again. There are so many possibilities for embellishing and wowing your non-crafty friends with this design, and another cool thing about this style card is that while it is dimensional, it folds flat for mailing! Awesomesauce! I hope you'll try this some time too. Easy tutorials can be found on youtube.
