Today I’m sharing a few photos, measurements, and a supply list for a unique window card that I created with the Party Alphabet Dies. This card also features “reversibles” images from the Feathered Friends Stamp Set and the beautiful blue gradient paper from the foiled Thoughtful Designs patterned paper pack. Because the Party Alphabet letters form the window of the card, I wanted them to say the same thing from the front and back. And the three letter word YAY was a perfect palindrome! (Here is my finished card. This is the view of the front with the card closed.
And here is the view of inside with the card open. Isn’t it fun!?
I will share the full directions and helpful tips for this card tomorrow evening for my supporter members of my YouTube channel in an exclusive Live video. If you are one of those members, be sure to go the members section of my channel so you can view it live or watch the replay to get all of that extra information (oh!

I edited this post a few days later to add another version of this card…
