February 22, 2017 Anything Goes


Today is "anything goes" day over at The House that Stamps Built - and some months it is my favorite Wednesday - but this week - I had an idea in my head but it just wasn't coming together - so I played a bit more and here is what I came up with.  With Spring just around the corner I know the birds will be looking at the real estate around here - and we have 3 bird houses all cleaned out and ready for new tenants.  The die is from IO - which I have had for a while and not used, and I adore these 3 sweet birds - Tiny Birds - 2614-D  2616-D and 2617-D - so I colored them very simply fussy cut and started to built my scene.  I have had this cute bird DP double sided which worked well together so I again went with the DP.  Used just the word "home" 10624-E  and then on the inside I stamped Congratulations. A bit of twine, some enamel dots, and pop up some birdies and I think we have found a family for our bird houses.
     Challenges:
          Crafty Hazelnuts Pattern Paper-use pattern paper

Absolutely stunning card Shirley, fabulous scene and that background paper is fantastic with it!

Super cute card, Shirley. This would make a nice "congrats on your new home" card, but I think it would also work well for someone who has been away a long time (in the service, maybe?) and is returning home.

OMGosh!!! I have that same die set and haven't used it yet. I'm inspired! I'm so ready for spring and your card has me getting spring fever.
