Nordic Birdies with Birdhouse

Hey everyone - I'm here with a card for the May Christmas Kickstart Challenge #110 - Season's Tweetings. Jo and her elf Joanne need to see birds on handmade Christmas cards! I decided to combine two Poppystamps sets on my card:


Supplies: Paper - Neenah Classic Crest Solar White;
various cardstocks &  Paper Studio Vintage Christmas
Dies - Poppystamps Bird House Pop Up Easel Set
Other - old Spellbinders kit ephemera; 
white gel pen; foam tape

I die cut all the elements and assembled - very fun! I cut the Nordic Bird Bunch die set's birdies from multiple cardstocks so I could mix and match colors. I included a patterned paper, inspired by Cindy's Nordic Spectacular Butterfly.

The birdhouse pop-up is one of my fave Poppystamps sets & aren't those birdies the cutest?! Oh, and btw, Poppystamps is our May Diva sponsor! Check out our Celebrations challenge HERE

I decorated the house with ephemera from an old Spellbinders card kit that I'd left at Dad's house. The sentiments are from there too. Here's a view of the card popped up:


I'm also adding my card to Merry Little Christmas #68 where Anything Goes and to Poppystamps Challenge #138 - Inspired by Nature.

That's it for today. Thanks to Jo and Joanne, to MLC, & to Poppystamps for fun challenges & thanks to you for visiting. Have a crafty day!!
