Bird House Card ~ By Jayne Loughlin

Good Day Fiskarettes

I am showing you a card I made using faabby Fiskars Punches. I used the Scalloped Circle Punch for the Window in the middle of the Bird House but I think I’ll try the Scalloped Anywhere Punch next time so keep watch for another Bird House Card soon !!!

You will need: Square Card Blank, Coloured card or paper, Fiskars Scalloped Circle Squeeze Punch, Effervescence Border Punch, Scissors, Pencil (opt), Flowers, Alpha stickers or die cuts, paper flowers, bling, Trimmer, Adhesive.

Instructions:

Firstly Cover a Square Card Blank with card or paper. Cut a 12″ x 2″ Strip of cardstock for the Roof. 

 Punch one long side using the Effervescence Border Punch, Trim this in half. Glue as in photo below…

Glue the Strip above onto your card, It will overlap edges slightly but this will be Trimmed.

Trim the top corners and edges of the Strip that is over lapping edges & the corners that aren’t the roof colour..

Punch a Scalloped Circle and Glue into the centre of the Bird house shaped card.

Trim a bird shape using Scissors Free hand (you can draw a body and wing and beak and cut out if you can’t cut freehand. Glue this onto the Scalloped Circle.

Cut a thin strip of green card & cut into Grass shapes using Scissors again, Glue to the bottom and Trim.

Add Vines using a squiggle for the vines and either colouring leaves.

A Title is added and a few Paper Flowers centred with Bling.

There we have it a little Bird house card.
