Hey There Birdie Card

Hello! Such a hot day here today..whew! Wish I had a pool!

Anyway..on to my card! I have been wanting to make a card with this bird every since I had this cartridge in my hand ( which has been awhile!) I finally got to it yesterday...yippeee!

I have also been on a kraft paper kick..I just love the way the colors POP against it!

Here goes..

This card is a good size, I wanted to try something different from the standard size.

You will need a piece of 7 x 8 1/2 pc cardstock. Fold

Your folded piece will measure 4 1/4 x 7

A strip of cardstock (orange flower print on my card) 6 1/2 x 3

A strip of cardstock 6 1/2 x 1 1/2..adhere to strips together, use corner chomper/rounder on edges, add ribbon and adhere to card.

Cut out bird using Home Decor Cart...(which is a must have) Size approx. 4"

Assemble bird and add to card..

Stamp Sentiment and its ready to give!
