Decoupage Bird House Card
This card does not have any cricut cuts on it. This could be used as a Christmas card or a winter Thank-you card.
The graphics are from PC Crafter. It is called Traditional Christmas by Tina Wenke. I have several collections from them and have not used them in quite awhile. I printed each graphic twice. I kept the first layer together. The second layer I cut apart to create the look of decoupage. On the poinsettias I cut the flowers out for the top layer and added glossy accents to the petals and yellow stickles to the centers of the flowers. For the birdhouse I cut the second image apart and layered the bow, birds and rooftop. I added the glossy accents to those pieces also. All the top layers are popped up with pop-dots. The pattern paper is from DCWV last years winter collection. I also inked the edges of the birdhouse graphic to tone down the white. Enjoy!

Dollar stamp, green flocking, I-Rock tool and silver gems, Ribbon,Deckled edge scissors, Chestnut Roan Chalk ink, Xyron machine, gypsy.
Card base is 5 1/2 by 4 1/4
I designed the bow background with my gypsy. I welded the bow from Winter Frolic to the card front. The first cut I did not have the top 2 rows welded so it came out short, but still usable.
I ran the card base folded through the xyron machine to cover the whole front.
I attached the bow background to the base and then covered the whole thing with green flocking.
I cut the wreath at 3.50 inches from Christmas Cheer and all the layers. I did use the hide contour feature to take the lines out of the wreath.
AfterI glued all the pieces together I used my I-Rock tool to attach the silver gems on each of the scallops.
I attached a piece of ribbon across the top because it looked like it needed something.
I stamped the greeting and cut it out with deckle edged scissors.
I inked around the edges and attached to the top of the card. Enjoy!
