Here is another one of those Garden Birdhouse cards we made! I saw a version of this by one of our talented demos on our Retreat! The colors were just stunning. My version uses Mint Macaron (instead of Pool Party) and So Saffron. I've used the Tailor Made Tags, Basic Borders Dies (love the "zig-zag" detail) and the new Host pack of DSP - Design a Daydream.
Measurements:
- Mint Macaron: 1/2 sheet, 1" x 4"
- Design a Daydream DSP (H) (N): 4" x 5 1/4"
- So Saffron: 2 1/2" x 4 1/4", 1" x 4", scrap
- Basic White: 2 1/2" x 4 1/4", 4" x 5 1/4" (inside) scraps
To Make this Card:
- Attach DSP to folded Mint Macaron card.
- Cut largest "tag" from Basic White and So Saffron, as well as a "reinforcement" from So Saffron.
- Cut "zig-zag" from Basic Borders Dies in So Saffron and Mint Macaron.
- Stamp and color "birdhouse" of your choice. Cut out with Paper Snips. Set aside.
- Stamp "birdhouse stand" directly onto White Tag, as shown. Attach cut "birdhouse" above with dimensionals. (the "stand" goes quite a ways up behind the birdhouse).
- Stamp sentiment in Black. Add So Saffron "reinforcement" to White tag.
- Layer the 2 "zig zags" together. (Love this!) Attach to back of right side of White tag. Trim ends.
- Line up ribbon holes of both tags and layer as desired. Select a coordinating ribbon on thread/twine and run through both holes.
- Now, attach to card. I attached my flush, with the White Tag centered and straight-on.
- Finish with some yellow retired Artistry Sequins.
