Sorry - this doesn't bear much relation to the TPT challenge at all. Pressed for time since housework was relegated to today. I used the Pop-up diorama tutorial - forgetting that normally I make a wider card using 12" card instead of 10 1/2. So I had a narrower space to work with.
Stamped and embossed the inside with Swirl Lace. Added bird sticker on grey card, and Dymo sentiment. For the front I embossed a piece of old DCWV card and lightly embossed with gold EP. Added another bird sticker, some foliage that was on the desk, punched flowers and some glittery clouds. Hopefully it will cheer Brenda, though I feel I have cheated big-time in making it.

Oh Sabrina, this is so tweety sweet! I love the colours....the blue with the gold edging is awesome! Fret not about cheating, as this card made me smile and will certainly make Brenda smile too. Those branches with birdhouses and birds are absolutely adorable! Such a treat to have a beautiful inside too.

Smiling here also---love birds--sit and porch and watch them all esp. the hummers fight for the feeders. Love the colors as well as all your sweet birds and if not said they are stickers would have thought paper pieced.

This is a little secret surprise card within a card...I think it's just darling and I predict Brenda will agree. Your details are fabulous! This is very much a smile maker

Sabrina, this is absolutely adorable. Just looking at this gallery for ideas and inspiration and your card popped right off the screen even in thumbnail size.
