For today's MMTPT344 I'm a Birdwatcher Bucket List challenge. I very much have another card I want to make for Joan's TLC523 Scene In a Circle challenge, but it wasn't a stamp that would be suitable for Dave. So I made this first, and I'll move on to my cute LOTV teddybear next .
I also used last week's TLC challenge, the diorama was perfect for a circle scene that is the focal point of the card.
Tutorial is HERE. I used a 12" strip of card, scored at 4", 7 1/2", 8", and 11 1/2".
The Scripture for the front and the quote inside are stamped on a stencilled scrap from my box of reject backgrounds. The stencilled tree scene is also a reject - it's the TCW Aspen stencil on some BG Aspen Frost paper. I just added some little diecut birds who have their plumage coloured a little with Stardust markers. Since I didn't want to waste my circle I had cut for the aperture, I just added it to the front of the card under the sentiment panel.

Oh, Sabrina, this is so wonderfully masculine and with the Scripture included, I am sure will be just what Dave loves! I love the cards you are making in this simple diorama - thanks for including the measurements - the papers you used of leaves are just perfect for the scene inside of the birds in the trees - Love this!

I love the scene you created on this card for Dave. This card shape is so fun and I was very glad you introduced me to it. I need to keep this in mind when I need to make more cards as it really is a fantastic shape for a card. Super cute card.
