Ephemoire - Winter Bird Cards

Hello, friends!

Today I have a fun new project for Ephemoire!

I am featuring two of my favorite items from the shop:

Winter Birds, 

and

Wood Texture Sampler.

These bird images are so beautiful!
There are LOTS of ways to get creative with these images and papers!
I confess that the Wood Texture paper collection 
has probably moved to the top of my favorites list! 
There are so many ways to use all the beautiful colors!

Here's what I made:

For all of the cards, I chose a wood background color that worked with the bird image.

I cut them to fit a white or kraft cardstock card base, 

distressed the edges, and adhered them in place.

For the first two cards, I die-cut a white cardstock wreath.

I then die-cu the bird image to fit inside the wreath.

I adhered them to the front of the card, leaving some leaves free.

I then curled up the leaves to give some added dimension.

Don't they look suitably frosty?

For the second two cards, I die-cut the wreaths from kraft cardstock.

Instead of die-cutting the image, I trimmed it town, 

and used a corner chomper on the corners.

I then adhered it to the card base at an angle

before adhering the wreath in place, on top of it.

Finally, I added some Stickles to the curled leaves.

I think these cards are great for so many different occasions!

I hope you make some of your own!
