The Country Birdhouse is probably one of my favorite bundles in the new catalog. This is the second card that I have created using the bundle. You can find my first card here. For my second card, I used the new the Country Lace DSP. This designer series paper is part of the entire suite which is called Country Woods.
Did you notice any new colors in this card? If you did, you are quite perceptive! The two pink colors are new In Colors; Pretty In Pink and Petunia Pop. Basic Beige is a brand new neutral color. You can find it in use under the sentiment. And let’s not overlook our oldies but goodies: Night of Navy, Misty Moonlight Pool Party and Garden Green. Together, these colors make a wonderful palette for the Country Birdhouse card.
The dies from the Country Birdhouse bundle are featured in this card. Surprisingly, I only used one stamp from the set and that was for the sentiment. There are 23 dies in this set which is amazing. There are so many ways to use these dies for your cards and other papercrafts. My card utilizes almost all of the dies.
The inside and more
Generally, I include lots of tips and tricks in my tutorials related to whatever card I’m making. Of course, I think the little tips and tricks that I share really help my projects come to life. You can watch my tutorial here to learn what those were for this particular card. And you can look below to find the dimensions I used. In addition, I’ll post photos of the products that I used to create this card after the products go live next week. When I use products that you can’t find on my Stampin’ Up! store, I’ll put links to those here on my website under “Favorite Things”.
