Home to Roost Fun Fold




Happy Saturday!!! Today we are "Stamping With the Stars!" and our first project is a pop-up diorama box. I was hoping that my stamping partner might be Donny Osmond but he's busy as a peacock right now so I stamped this little farm scene all by myself!

I created a downloadable PDF file for you with the score lines marked. Just cut your cardstock to 10-1/2" x 5-1/2" to get started!


Here's the outside of the card, the door is from the "Sliding Doors" framelit and coordinating set from the Annual Catalog.

Treehouse Adventure Card

When I was a child, I loved tree houses. I had a couple, they weren’t fancy but they were mine and felt like a little private hideaway for me and my friends. I wanted to make a card that captured that whimsical feeling, because that’s what it feels like to a kid. I chose fun bright colors and made the clouds with gold foil, pink and blue card stock. Maybe someday I’ll build a treehouse that I could have my stamp club in?
