Bird & Dog houses

Came across this great idea on Amy Water's blog.  It's a bird house, created by the famous Nichole Heady!  The pattern is available on Nichole's web site here.  Just print the pattern right onto your colored cardstock, add the roof (dimensions for roof are included on the pattern itself), and decorate to your heart's content!

The bird house was one we made at my Spring Stamp Camp this weekend.

Stamps:  Cheep Talk

Cardstock:  Bashful Blue, Creamy Caramel, Whisper White

Ink:  Ruby Red, Crushed Curry

Other:  1 1/4" circle punch, Sticky Strip, Old Olive/Close to Cocoa markers


The dog house is actually my first attempt with this pattern.  It really does come together quite easily.  Give it a whirl!

Stamps:  D is for Dog

Cardstock:  Real Red, Basic Black, Whisper White

Ink:  Basic Black, Real Red

Other:  Stampin' Dimensionals

I did use the Direct-to-Paper technique on the house itself before I assembled it, but you can't hardly tell in this picture.
