The card I am sharing today is one shared by a team member, Rosie Kean, at out quarterly meeting.  We have card demonstrations at the last team meeting of the quarter.   She used Stampin’ Up! Country Birdhouse stamp set and Dies and this card is my creation of her card.

I am entering Creative Creases Challenge for this card.

The above photos show what you need for the card base, the cut for the birdhouse and the pieces you will need to create this card.

I started with a Crumb Cake card base, adding a  layer of Pecan Pie cardstock next and Country Woods Designer Series Paper on top of the Pecan Pie card stock.  As you have die cut the pieces necessary to create this card. A greeting is stamped on the Country Woods piece that is for the ledge of the birdhouse, it is stamped in Memento Black ink using a greeting from Stampin’ Up! Country Birdhouse stamp set.

This is how the card looks when the birdhouse part of the card is opened.  On the birdhouse I stamped a sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Thoughtful Expressions stamp set.  The sentiment at the bottom with the bird is from Stampin’ Up! Beach Day stamp set.  Both are stamped in Memento Black ink.  The birdhouse is then centered on the panel and adhered using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

This is how the card looks with the bottom panel opened flat fully showing the birdhouse on the back panel.

The bottom panel is folded up to close and the birdhouse closes over the panel.

A Basic White cardstock piece is stamped with flowers from Stampin’ Up! Country Birdhouse and colored using Lemon Lolly, Garden Green, and Pool Party Stampin’ Blends.  The piece is matted to a piece of Pecan Pie cardstock and adhered to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

A Basic White envelope gets a piece of Country Woods Designer Series Paper adhered to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you took the time to linger and look at my other blog post and cards and that you will join me on my stamping journey as I share my cards with you each day. My hope and wish are that you will be inspired to create amazing creations yourself. Feel free to CAS(E) any card. Any questions you may have, you know you can always contact me. Have a blessed day!
