April 11th Card
Once again I forgot to post a card I had designated for yesterday. Since I already have enough cards to cover the next month, you get several cards today.
I discovered that one of the scalloped dies from Color and Contour set fit perfectly in the space with this SU embossing folder. There was a scrap of the Bird Ballad dsp that I couldn't bring myself to throw away so I trimmed it down to fit.
Below are the two cards scheduled for today using more of the Bird Ballad dsp. This was my favorite paper from that pack. I cut two identical pieces and then cut off 1" from the side for the book binder fold. As you can see, I just reversed the way I chose to show the designs.
For years we have had Robins building their nests on the back side of the house. They usually start by trying to build a nest on the light just outside the back door. It causes quite a mess! However, eventually they get the idea and build their nest under our upper level deck. It is great because then we get to watch the progress of baby Robins and sometimes have gotten to watch them leave the nest.
Thank you for coming by today!

Very pretty. I LOVE that embossing folder. It was one of my favorites. You did a great job featuring the DSP
Such pretty, pastel-ly colors on these wonderful cards!
Beautiful cards today. Discovering the perfect fit of the scalloped rectangle die helped make that first card really special. Love the bookbinder cards, too. That's one of my favorite designs. In fact, I think I'll make a couple this week to donate. How fun to watch baby Robins hatch and grow!
Lovely use of the dsp. It's such wonderful colors and I like your design. tfs
