Stampin’ Up! Country Birdhouse
This is a first time use for me. I believe Stampin’ Up! Country Birdhouse Stamp Set is going to be one of my favorites from the 2024-2025 Annual catalog. It get more difficult to get a card made. Maybe after a few more weeks, I will have some energy to get things done. In creating this card, along with the stamp set I used Nature’s Sweetness Designer Series Paper. Happy it carried over.
The card base is Shaded Spruce card stock. A layer of Early Espresso cardstock is added next. It becomes the mat for the Nature’s Sweetness Designer Series Paper. Before adding to the Early Espresso cardstock, the panel is brushed with Crumb Cake ink using a Blending Brush and Crumb Cake ink.
I am entering Creative Creases Challenge for this card.
Flowers and birds are stamped using stamps from Stampin’ Up! Country Birdhouse stamp set, then colored using Stampin’ Blends. Greenery is die cut from Granny Apple Green and Mossy Meadow cardstock. The birdhouse is die cut from a piece of Country Woods Designer Series Paper. It is brushed with Crumb Cake ink using a Blending Brush. The birdhouse roof and porch is from a piece of Shaded Spruce cardstock. I die cut the scalloped piece from a piece of the Country Woods Designer Series Paper. A piece of Basic Black card stock is used to die up the decoration post the birdhouse rest on. A piece is also place behind the circle cut in the birdhouse.
Another piece of Nature’s Sweetness Designer Series Paper is cut, brushed, matted on Early Espresso cardstock then adhered to the inside panel. Flowers are popped on the panel to create a stop for the easel.
This is how the card looks when it is folded to create the easel.
When you open the card, you will find a piece of Basic White adhered over the Nature’s Sweetness Designer Series Paper to enable a note to be written if wanted.
This is the back of the card where a greeting is stamped in Crumb Cake ink using a stamp from Stampin’ Up! Beach Day stamp set. A flower is popped on the corner of the piece.
A Very Vanilla envelope gets a piece of Nature’s Sweetness S Designer Series Paper adhered to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
