Although there are a whole lot of fabulous window cards to cut out and use on the Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge, I chose to go about it in a different way...I used a layer instead.
I really like the dragonfly postage stamp! I cut him out at 3", then layered some foliage behind him. I popped the whole thing up on top of the Victory paper and chocolate striped ribbon. A few circular Durables, and some Distress Stickles on his wings, and the card is complete! I think it will make a nice birthday card for one of my nephews.
Here is a closer view of the dragonfly.
