4 Calling Birds

Just scrapping in with my March Rudolph Card being the 4th Day of Christma ie 4 Calling birds.
I have used all die cuts to make this card and also an embossing folder that I have not used before as it is a very large one 8.25 x 11.5 inches and won't go through my embossing machine in the traditional way. 

Folder is by 'Diesire' and called Tumbling Leaves onto gold metallic  cardstock.  I have used 'Sizzix' thinlits 660827 called Love Birds for the bird element and 'Sizzix'Thinlits 661049 Whimsical Wish for the trailing branch The design paper is from a pad by 'Love to Craft' called Vintage Noel die cut using 'Tattered Lace' rounded corner Essentials Squares.  The sentiment has been made up by using various dies. Britannia for the Christmas and  Birthday (cut down), Sizzix 661163 for the number 4 and tonic birthday numbers for the th.  The gems came from my stash.  Not managed my quota this month so must try harder for May!

Lovely card with these cute birds and the gold, and no one might say that the sentiment was made using three different dies!

I've got a thing about Christmas cards made on a 'twelve days of Christmas' theme so I love your Calling/Colley birds (whichever way you prefer to do it!) The checked paper is gorgeous and I love the curve of the leafy branch too. Vicky x
