I wanted to be able to see both birds on the front, but when the card was opened have one missing. I also wanted to have room to write, because my husband gets very disappointed if I do not write in his cards. This is how I did it.
I took a piece of Papertrey Spring Moss cardstock and folded it in thirds. I then cut out the front of the cardstock and the piece of Everyday Blessings cardstock to go on the front with my long rectangle nestibilities. I cut a piece of vellum to fit in the space and then adhered it between the two cardstocks.


I hope I explained this in a way that made sense. I really need to work on my picture taking skills. My pictures do not showcase my cards very well.
Tip- I used removable tape to hold everything together until I had everything completed the way I wanted it. That way I could see what it all looked like, but if I messed up it didn't ruin the whole project.
Have a blessed day!
