Firstly I have to apologize for the photography on this card. It was extremely difficult to get a photo of this card in it's true colours. The real thing actually looks much cleaner and brighter .... The photo has a bit of a yellowish hue and the inked edges are more prominent in the photo than in reality, which makes it look grubby to me.
This bird house card was inspired by the bird house Easter egg box I made some time back.
Cutting out the bird house was fun trying to get both sides the same angle.
