Hello! Thank you for stopping by. The latest sketch is up at Tuesday Morning Sketches and this sketch is by Patti. I loved this sketch, I purposely scheduled it the way I did so I can feature it for a Christmas card. Of course, you don't have to make it a Christmas card, if you don't want to.
Patti's sketch has an added challenge to add a bird. Well that set this Winter Birdhouse from Spellbinders into mind. I love this house! My card also features the Oct'22 Embossing Folder of the Month called Scattered Christmas. I embossed a panel of Phone Booth (Spellbinders) card stock and then used Picket Fence Distress Ink over the top. I added strips of leftover paper from last week's card. The bird is from a separate die set. The sentiment is from the Stamp/Dies Set Oct'22. In hindsight, I shouldn't have cut the opening in the birdhouse so that the bird stands out from the red panel, but I have 7 more of these cards to make. I won't make that mistake!
Please join us at the TMS blog and join in the fun. We really love to see what you create, you inspire us as well.

That is just cute. Great minds huh? We both chose red birds. That birdhouse is adorable.
Melissa when I saw your card I thought well this sketch was just made for it!! I like the hole cut out maybe you could put a solid color behind it like kraft so it would look like it has wood inside...or just black cuz it would be dark inside :) I love it so much no matter how you make it!!
Beautiful card!! I love your little bird and the inked embossing!!
Love the birdhouse! And Patti's suggestions, too. Pretty embossing folder on the background.
