I got the new Graphic 45 Magic of Oz papers and I love them! I was thinking that it would make a cool decoration for a bird house...sooooo...
This is the front. Yes, I know there is no hole for the birds...I have to add that...I just haven't figured out how or if I am going to do it...I added a Tim Holtz post "door knob" and Prima bling. I used Fiskars punches for the roof. I made the house with a template from Torie Jayne...you can get it here.
Here is the other side. Don't you just love this paper? I created a base for the house, and used my Tim Holtz Sizzix die for the fence.
The back of the house...I put flowers in the corners of the house behind the fence.
I decided that the roof needed to be a lid, to hold a mini album. I will show that in a minute.
Inside is "finished". The border on the bottom says "There's no place like home".
I found the cutest little tutorial for this mini here by Irit Shalom's Designs. Hers would have been 4x6", I needed it smaller, so mine is 4x4".
It opens...
And you can unfold it up and down. Then...
Two flaps open. I made pockets in the upper and lower corner, and punched simple tags for it.
Here is the back.
Thanks for looking, have a crafty day!
