Principally you can import artwork from AI to AS. But colours and fills will not translate properly, and quite often you need to adjust point curvature.

For anything which doesn't move it is best to import as a bitmap. A window in your BG can be made either as a transparency in a PNG (made within Photoshop), or you can mask it in AS.
