TLC252 Merry Birdhouse Challenge was so much funÂ…..I think I will be making a lot of these over the yearÂ… they are so cute for the front of a gift, or even on a bagged gift, party favor, I can go on and on about how cute these areÂ… Thanks so much Lynn for the Challenge and thank you Brenda a/s/a QBee for the template. I have truly enjoyed thisÂ… even though my chores are way behind schedule, I have enjoyed this todayÂ…
The third house is for Valentines dayÂ… My mother is in an assisted living cottage and I wanted to make her a box of goodies for Valentines dayÂ… as she is 90 years youngÂ… and will again put up her sweetheart treeÂ… (actually she takes out the Christmas tree and even puts some lights (all white) onto the tree and calls it a sweetheart treeÂ… she has done it for yearsÂ… so this will certainly go on thereÂ… She decorates the tree with all kinds of sweet things.. like strawberries, peppermints, and even little things like birds etcÂ… so this will really fit into the decorating of the sweetheart treeÂ…
I made the sides of the house with reversing inking on the cuddlebugsÂ… I used the heart folder and also the pebble one for the roofÂ… I made windows on the sides with vines growing up with heart flowers on the vines.. the bird of course matches the house colorÂ… what else would the door be than a heartÂ… and decorated with dot trimÂ… The edge of the roof is also a Martha Stewart heart eyelet trim punch.
