This week over at The House that Stamps Built our challenge is "Signs of Spring". There were so many choices that I simply didn't know which one to use so I finally decided on this one.
This bird house card is from an "OLD" pattern - probably at least 14-15 years old. But for our spring challenge I thought "if I can find the pattern" I am going to make this. Pattern found, and cut out of white, fold a few scorelines - put roof on in woodgrain pattern as well as the sill. I stamped the image - 1703-J Birds nest branch, and 1301-F Happy Spring. I colored with copic markers and then staped another bird nest only and popped it up to give a little added dimension. What more - how some soft fluffy clouds in light blue, and a pretty pink bow and card done. Will fit in regular A2 size envelope.

Your birdhouse is fabulous and perfect for our spring challenge! Like how you popped the nest up!
So Beautiful Shirley..Love the birdhouse..Loz
This is super cute!! It shows that oldies can be goodies, for sure! Love the dimension on the nest and that yummy bow! (I'll try to remember to do my next POTW showing how to line up the letter dies perfectly; thanks for the request!)
This birdhouse card pattern is darling and makes the cutest card! Awesome job Shirley!
Your little birdhouse is so cute! And I'm really impressed that you could find the pattern for your card after so many years. I noticed that a bird was building a nest in one of our birdhouses this week. That means we should have some baby birds before too long. I love when I can hear them cheeping out in the yard, waiting for their mama to bring them some food.
Older than that, my friend! Probably 20 years old! Beautifully done - what a great card for the spring challenge. You are a true rock star!
Wonderful creations!
