Spring Time Bird House

Hello Crafters.
 
Its the school holidays here is France and its very cold but at least the sun is shining.  I have a bright and cheerful project to share with you today using dies from Spellbinders.
 
 
I have made a book folded bird house.  There are lots of great tutorials on the internet with fabulous step by step instructions.  If you can make paper aeroplanes you can make one of these.  This is a great project to try if you are just starting out with this craft.  I have seen some stunning pieces and also books folded into words.
 
 
Once you have completed your bird house you can start to decorate it.  First I added some pretty green lace to the bottom.  This also helps to hold your bird house in place.
 
I then used the Create A Sunflower Die from Spellbinders and I made three in different colours.
 

I also used the Die D-Lites Flying Bugs set also from Spellbinders.  I cut these out from gold card stock and glued them to the bird house.
 
 
I also added a few sequins to finish.  A project is never finished until I add a little sparkle.
 

Thanks for stopping by today and please check out the website over at Spellbinders for full details about the die sets I have used on todays project.
