Country Birdhouse Birthday Card

I’m so excited to start using some of the products from the new Annual Catalog. I made this card using the Country Birdhouse Bundle.

I used the Color Combo from my April Inspiration Calendar - Starry Sky, Lemon Lime Twist and Gorgeous Grape.

Tips & Instructions

• Gorgeous Grape Card Base - 5 1/2 x 8 1/2, score at 4 1/4

• Stamp the birdhouse from the Country Birdhouse Stamp Set in Black Memento ink on a piece of Basic White. Color with a Light Lemon Lime Twist Stampin’ Blends Marker. I colored just the main part of the birdhouse since I covered the top and bottom with pieces that I die cut. You can trim off any white that is showing on the edges. Color the large circle with a Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends Marker.

• Die cut the bottom and top pieces of the birdhouse from Lemon Lime Twist Cardstock using the coordinating dies. Emboss the bottom piece and the very top piece using the crosshatch embossing folder.

• Adhere the pieces to the birdhouse. I had to trim a little bit off the base birdhouse that was showing through.

• Die cut the small circle from Basic Black and adhere to the birdhouse for the perch.

• Stamp the bird in Black Memento ink on a scrap of Basic White and die cut. Color the bird with a Light Starry Sky Stampin’ Blends Marker. Use the Color Lifter marker to remove some ink from it’s belly. Color the beak and feet with a Light Lemon Lime Stampin’ Blends Marker. Adhere bird to the birdhouse with Dimensionals.

• Die cut flowers from Gorgeous Grape and leaves from Lemon Lime Twist and adhere to the birdhouse. Add some Rhinestones to the flower centers.

• Adhere birdhouse to the card.

• Stamp sentiment on scrap of Basic White with Starry Sky ink and die cut using the Happy Little Things Dies. Adhere to the card with Dimensionals.

On the inside layer (4 x 5 1/4) stamp sentiment in Starry Sky ink. Stamp the flower in Gorgeous Grape ink and color the center with a Light Lemon Lime Twist Stampin’ Blends Marker.

  • Lay the die on the side that you inked up. It should fit in and lock into place.

  • Place a scrap of Basic White over the word that you want to use (Hello) and close the folder.
