The Country Birdhouse Bundle and Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder are so gorgeous.
For this card I was looking for a fine woodgrained texture. Although I an enamoured with the Country Woods 12″x12″ Designer Series Paper, the designs were all larger than I was looking for.
Solution – use the Wood Textured Specialty Paper.
After folding the Petal Pnk cardbase, I added a layer of Basic White Thick card that was embossed with the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder. This gives such a sweet and delicate texture to the card.
Before die cutting the birdhouse, I attached a piece of Adhesive Sheet to the back of Wood Textured Specialty Paper. After cutting each of the eight birdhouse pieces, they were coloured using Early Espresso, Petal Pink and Pool Party Classic Stampin’ Pads and Blending Brushes.
The birdhouse was assembled and then positioned on the embossed layer using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I stamped the sentiment, in Pool Party, onto a panel of Basic White Thick card. The thicker card helps the sentiment stay more rigid, especially when supported by dimensionals.
The only embellishment added was this sweet little bow made with the Petal Pink Diagonal Ribbon. It was attached with a Mini Glue Dot.
With the textured detail , from the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder, I thought adding gems or pearls would be too much. Sometimes, less is more!
The card insert and envelope flap each had some of the Petal Pink Country Lace DSP added.
Tomorrow I will share a birdhouse Window Card with you.
Until then, happy stamping.
