I Love the NEW Birdhouse with Sign image. The blank sign has been customer made using the small Miss You stamp. I have inked the image several times, fussy cut and added dimension by popping up the roof and the sign.

I started the card by stamping the beautiful Sweetgum and Acorns Cling Set image.

The stamped image was then die cut with the stitched square. A circle die was used to frame the image by dry embossing.

The Mahogany Sequins from Serendipity repeat the wood pattern on the bird house. 

The Birdhouse, acorns and a few leaves were fussy cut, curved and popped up onto Sweetgum branch.

Several different elements of texture were used to add interest. 

I have used faux suede, corrugated cardboard, natural jute and canvas to help pull together the masculine theme.

Looking forward to seeing your designs
