I started off with some patterned paper from October Afternoon's Farmhouse collection, as well as the Love Birds and A Pocketful stamp sets from WPlus9 to come up with this card for today:
The house was created using the small pocket stamp and die from WPlus9, and the sentiment was created using letter stickers from Echo Park's A Walk in the Park collection. All the edges were distressed with PTI's Chamomile Tea Dye ink, but the bird was stamped in A Muse Studio Cranberry; the house was stamped in a dark brown SU! color that I borrowed from Jessica (thank you, Jessica!). The cork paper was trimmed with my paper trimmer and handcut to make the upside down pocket look like a house:
Lastly, I used a small circle punch from SU! to punch out the brown cardstock piece to make a "door" for the birdhouse. Cute, I think!
Well, off to do more work now! Have a great day!
