Hi, this is my Home Tweet home Birdhouse, which I LOVED making and found it really easy to put together.
I used KT30 3D Birdhouse,
which I covered in Cosmo Cricket Early Bird range, for the roof I cut strips of the pattern paper and used a border punch to create the tiled roof, I also edged the roof for mini pom poms and added some
FS05 Flourish set05 and
CH64 Mini corner scrolls
to the front of the house, which I sprayed with Glimmer mists.
The CH176 Abstract tree small,
BS02 heart buttons and
BS12 Square button card.
I covered in matching paper and put the tree through the cuttlebug machine using Swiss dots. I also added to the tree some buttons and used thread to tie little bows.
With BD10 Picket Fence border,
CH194 Fences mini and
CH195 Grass mini,
I inked them using a brown and green ink pads.
The CHmini-f CHminiatures butterflies and
CH136 Funky Birds small,
I sprayed with glimmer mist, I also added a flower folded in half with a pearl which made a wing and a eye to complete the bird.
To finish the birdhouse off I used cream lace on the inside of the opening and pearls around the outside.
Thanks Gilly :-)))
