Bird House Card

I made this card today.  I saw a version of it on the SU website.

It used the Bird Builder punch (pg 213). I don't have that punch but I do have the Blossom Petal Builder (pg 213) so I added it to the card.  I embossed the petals of the flower using the Big Shot (pg 215) and used the mini poko dot Texturz Plates (219).  I also added the stamp set Element of Style (pg 134) for the inside of the card and the bird on the front comes from Nature Walk (pg 100).  I used various inks including Real Red, Marina Mist, and Early Espresso (pg 178-180).  Card stock was Real Red and Soft Suede and Crumb Cake (pg 179-180). I also added an Antique Brad  to the centre of the flower (pg 198).  The red on the bird house I ran over it with a Standard Wheel (pg 235) but that one is no longer in the book.  You could use any one you wanted just to add a little texture.

And that's my card.  I hope you like it and make your own version of it.  If you email me your card I'll post it on my blog. tammym28@hotmail.com
