Birdhouse Box Card

I love birdhouses what about you? And I love box cards do you? Well lets combine the two in this beautiful card. This was inspired by a challenge we posted on our E Club Kit group a few weeks ago. The challenge was show me photos of some things you would like to see me recreate and your name will be entered into a drawing for a FREE months E Kit. We have had quite a few entries and I think this is Kathy Champion's entry. So here is our take on this card. 








Measurements:

Cardstock cut at 11 1/2x6 1/2 inches, on the long side score at 2 3/4", 5 1/2", 8 1/4" 11" turn to the left and score at 3".

Fold and burnish score lines, with the 3" panels facing you, cut up on all the score lines and cut away the small tab at the end.

Mats for the bottom of the box is 2 1/2"x3 3/8" cut 4 of these
top flap mats 2 1/2"x2 3/4" cut three of these. 

Back piece for the birdhouse roof is cut at 5 1/2"x2 3/4" cut 3 if your cardstock is thin, two if not thin.
Mat for this is 2 1/2x5 1/8"

Roof pieces is cut at 1"3 1/8" cut 2

Top scallop circle is 1" Punch
white circle is 3/4" circle punch

Birdhouse opening piece is 1 1/4" punch

Inside strips are cut at 1/2x4 scored at 1/2 on each end - these may need adjusting some to fit yours.

I used the Garden Bird die to create the flowes and some branches.
