Thankful For You Nordic Bold Bird By Meghan Kennihan

Hi Crafty Friends,
Summer always brings birds singing at sunrise. While it's a beautiful sound, not at 5am :) Poppy Stamps has gorgeous layered bird dies. I am showing off the Nordic Bold Bird Die 2714 with this warm orange monochrome card. I used the beautiful Memory Box Paper Pad Glimmering Gladiola PP1028 for my background.

Make Crafty Friends Q & A:
Q: What is your favorite bird?
A: Me? I like red cardinals 

Step #1: I die cut the Poppy Stamps Nordic Bold Bird in different shades of orange from the Memory Box Sunrise Paper Pad PP1013. Then I used the same shades of orange for my frames using Poppy Stamps Double Scalloped Stitched Frames Dies.

Step #2: I stamped the sentiments from Poppy Stamps Sentimental Banners CB516 on to cardstock matching the birds belly.

Step #3: I put everything together on my card as shown above and added gold gems to the corners and for the bird's eye.

Birthday Wishes By Lisa Elton

Hello, Lisa here today with a sweet and simple summer card for you. Lots of white with a little pop of color! The Nordic Bold Bird is the star of the show with one of my favorites, the Dandelion Stem, as the supporting cast.

I started with a white card base and two of the dandelion die cuts. The dandelions were cut from a different shade of white. It's a little more marshmallow and the base is a true white.

The sweet bird was nestled among the blooms. I just love the way he pops on all of that white!

I used shades of orange cardstock from the Sunny Orange 6x6 pad along with some of our Black Glossy Paper to put him together. Just a little Copic shading was added using dots. Isn't he a handsome fella!

The same Black Glossy Paper was used on the Birthday Wishes Moonlight Script sentiment. The font on this is just beautiful and it cuts in one piece making for easy placement. This card would have been good to go right here, but I wanted one more finishing touch...

I rounded the two top corners with a punch to echo the bird's round head and tail feathers. It adds just the right amount of some-something, don't you think?

I hope you like my clean and simple summer card. Pop over to the shop to check out these products and more!

Birds of a Feather by Allison Frazier

Hello, Poppystamps friends! I am excited to be back on the blog today sharing another clean and simple card featuring the new Nordic Forest Release. This time, I am showcasing the Nordic Birds of a Feather set. 

I started my card by covering the front of an A2 card base with some plaid paper. This paper is from the Memory Box Madras Plaid Blue and Violet paper pad. I glued a smaller panel of cream woodgrain paper on top. I then started on the birds.

There are three dies in the Nordic Birds of a Feather set. Each die cuts all the pieces for one set of birds, which face opposite directions. I cut two shades of card stock from each die. I also cut white card stock with each die so that I could have a white body for all of the birds. For the piece that is used for the beak, I took the white die cuts and colored the beaks with a yellow marker. Assembly is really easy, as it is with all Poppystamps dies. I just flipped how I layered the colors for each set of birds. 

For my sentiment, I used the Freestyle Hello die, and I cut it from my favorite black glossy card stock. I lined my birds up on the card panel and adhered them with liquid glue. I offset the sentiment and then added a few Fairy Drops.

That is it for my card today. I hope it brings a smile to your face! Thanks so much for joining us on the blog.

Nordic Sweeping Branch wreath by Michelle Woerner

Hi crafty friends! It's Michelle Woerner here sharing this pretty wreath card. I featured the Nordic Sweeping Branch and the Nordic Birds of a Feather die sets from the new 2025 Nordic Forest collection.

To start my card I die cut out a circle from a white panel and added score lines every 1/8" along the bottom (scroll down for a close up pic). Next I die cut the Nordic Sweeping Branch 2 times and the Nordic Birds of a Feather once. There are 3 bird combinations from 1 die, so I was able to get both my birds by die cutting my colors once. 

The colors I used for the wreath and wings of my birds were taken from the pattern paper strip. I chose a pretty floral print with bold pinks, soft yellow and lush greens from the Memory Box Brilliant Fuchsia 6x6 pad. I adhered the paper between the open circle and scored lines and tied some twine into a bow. Then I adhered the panel on to my card base using foam squares.

I placed the the 2 die cut branches together forming a wreath just inside the circle opening. The with outer leaves outside the circle and the inner leaves in the inside. Lastly, I couldn't resist adding a small accents to the wreath, so I pulled Fabulous Florals die set and cut the tiny flower centers from dark pink cardstock. The sentiment is from the Hooray stamp/die set.

If you haven't already, head over to the New Releases section and check out all the new goodies in the 2025 Nordic Forest collection. You might find some new favorites! Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.

A Simple Hello by Allison Frazier

Hello, Poppystamps friends! I am excited to be back on the blog today sharing this clean and simple card featuring the new Nordic Petalpoint Bird. This cutie is just one of the new birds in the Nordic Forest release. If you haven't seen the release yet, be sure to check it out!

I started my card with the Nordic Lavish Border Set. I used the smallest border die from this set and cut it from three different shades of green cardstock. I then cut strips of the same color cardstock and glued those behind the corresponding border pieces. This gives each piece a tone on tone look, while still keeping all that texture! I glued these to the bottom of a white A2 card base, leaving some white space below so that the design of the border die is still visible.

Next I cut the pieces for my bird. I used white for the body and then three different shades of blue for the feathers and wing. There is a piece that gets glued behind the head to create the beak. I cut that from yellow cardstock and colored the part that would show through for the eye black. I assembled the bird with liquid glue and added it to the card base. Finally, I cut the word from the Hello Spring die set using black glossy cardstock and glued that to my card base. 

This card shows how quick and easy it is to make an adorable card that is sure to bring a smile to the recipient's face. I hope it brought a smile to your face today! Thanks so much for joining us on the blog.

Hello friends! I am so excited to share today's card with you! It features a couple of the new products from our Nordic Forest release, now available in the shop, mixed in with some previously released products. Let's take a look at the steps taken to create this multi-layered card. 

The first layer is the Evangeline Pinpoint Frame. I die cut it, popped out the little petals, then adhered it to a white card base.

The new Nordic Sweeping Branch is a must have for your collection. There are so many possibilities for it's use! This time, I die cut the branch three times (MB: Gladiola Plaid 6x6 paper pad) and then easily formed it into a wreath. The fact that it has little polka dot veining is another big win in my book!

If those polka dot veins weren't enough cuteness for you, there's even a die included to created some of those darling layered Nordic leaves! Mine are layered in cardstock colors pulled from the plaid wreath.

Since this card will be going to my cousin and her husband for their anniversary, (their daughter is throwing them a surprise party!), I added some champagne colored leafy sprigs to the mix. 

Two of our new Nordic Birds of a Feather were popped on with foam tape. They were cut from white cardstock. Some of their layers were colored with Copics to compliment the wreath. A simple congrats sentiment from the Hooray Stamp set was all that was needed.

The final layer consists of a few flowers from the Handpicked Bouquet die set and a sprinkling of Fairy Jewels. As you can see, there were several layers used to put this together, but they went together so easily! I hope you like the results... my in house critic did!

Hurry on over to the shop to check out the new products... and the old! You won't be one bit disappointed, I promise!
