Our Pixie Cottage Challenge this week is Anything but a card....there are so many possibilities to this challenge. Be sure to stop by and see my teammates awesome creations this week!
I decided to make a birdhouse. To start I printed lots of the Dew Drop Dahlia by Artish and water colored them. I cut them out to put all round the bottom of the birdhouse and on the tag.
I decided to make a birdhouse. To start I printed lots of the Dew Drop Dahlia by Artish and water colored them. I cut them out to put all round the bottom of the birdhouse and on the tag.
I made a little tag to go along with the birdhouse. I recycled a peanut can for my little house. I cut the hole and covered with papers from the Heartwarming Vintage Collection. I used some scallops circle punches for the opening. The roof edge and the bottom trellis used MS punches.I found this old piece of green cotton lace for the bottom. Sorta looks like grass doesn't it?? Dug in the button box and found some green, blue and white buttons to go around the bottom. Added a little twig for a perch.
My friend Martha suggest I make the roof removable. I cut a circle and overlapped to create the little peaked roof. I cut out the rest of the flowers and added two layers for each one and attached to the roof along with leaves. Added a bow made with hand dyed ribbon.
I'm filling it with chocolate drops for my Dad. My dad feeds the wild birds and do they have his number! They all stop by every morning for breakfast. It is a little girly but he will love it first because I made it for him and second cuz its filled with his favorite.... Chocolate drops!
