These are really nice windows, I love your directions!! I have used the black tape for one of my Halloween houses. The black tape is shinny so I used the fine side of an emery board and dulled the finish and attached it to white velum.

I have my red cellophane, and I just purchased a roll of pinstripe from Mega Hobby. Can't wait to try it out! BTW, is there a link here to the window outlines that was pictured on the link? Pic below--

I think this is it.

You may need to adjust size to make it correct when printing.
