here is the ATC i made for Dusty Attic August Challenge "through the window". 

products used here are mini vine DA0307, mini rocking chair DA0633,  mini birdhouses DA0706, mini picket fence DA 0698 and chandelier small DA0080. 

you can't see the the chandelier because i cut it and made it into the base/post for the mini birdhouse and use the candles for wall lamp.

 i used corrugated board for the base and for the window. to achieve the window effect, i cut the center portion of the corrugated board leaving half an inch on all sides then i glued down a piece of acetate at the back of the window frame.
