Hey everybody! Happy Thursday – I hope you’re having a great week! I’m delighted to share a Scrapbook Pal DT inspiration project with you today. This new year card features the super fun Catherine Pooler Home Tweet Home Dies, Hero Arts Joyful Christmas Messages Hero Transfers, and the Spellbinders 3-in-1 Notched Corners Punch. Seems lately I’m enamored with birds and have made several bird-themed cards over the past couple months. These Home Tweet Home Dies are so much fun and I love how this card turned out. I like to ‘think outside the box’ occasionally, and even though the Hero Transfers are Christmas-themed, a couple of the sentiments worked really well for this new year card.

I cut a standard A2 size side-folding card base from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock along with front and inside layering panels from 80# Solar White. Next, I cut front and inside layering panels and some embellishing strips from CutCardStock Lessebo Brick Orange cardstock. I punched all four corners of the card base and layering panels with the Spellbinders 3-in-1 Notched Corners Punch. I adhered a horizontal strip to ground the birdhouses and then added sentiments from the Hero Arts Joyful Christmas Messages Hero Transfers below the strip.
Using the Catherine Pooler Home Tweet Home Dies, I cut the birdhouse pieces in a variety of colors from the CutCardStock Lessebo line, and then assembled three houses. I added some random whimsical details with a Copic Ciao 100 Black alcohol marker and then affixed a bird brad to each house. The finishing touch was adding a few clear gemstones.

I assembled the inside panel and added an additional sentiment from the Hero Transfers.
