Let's begin by building a flat, but dimensional birdhouse:
After putting the tape on so the sticky side faces down...
To create flat flowers:
Pretty Pearly Vellum clouds were cut using the Cheery Lynn B320 Clouds and Rain set.
Side view of the center card set - it also folds flat for mailing:
Finally, the back is just as pretty as the front!
It looks slightly different than the front, but the card could be shown either way!
We hope you enjoyed today's ideas.
