Wish I had a birdhouse just like it, or a real house just like it, for that matter! Love the colors! Here is the card that it inspired.
I used so many bits and pieces for this card and lots of cutting. The background gingham is a piece of A Muse paper that Robin just sent me. The paper-pieced (jillibean "caraway seeds", dark cream parchment paper) digital birdhouse is from Tiffany Doodles. The embossed bird is a favorite template from my friend Mary Anne, with a punched heart wing, embossed with the Cuttlebug Textile folder on Core'dinations Bluebell paper. Both the birdhouse and the bird were distressed with broken china distress ink before layering onto the card. The leafy branches are a Hero Arts stamp (CL338 Be Yourself), stamped in peeled paint distress ink, then cut out. And lastly, the little letters are stickers from an old Tim Coffey scrapbooking kit.
THANK YOU for choosing my card as an honorable mention!
