I went to a Stampin Up workshop a few weeks ago and made this adorable birdhouse card set! She ordered the directions from another demo who creates these things up and sells them, what a cool idea! It took a good 2 - 3 hours but it was fun. It holds the 4 cards you see and the roof opens with a little velcro tab. Just too cute! As you know by now I love making these things, I have another small project I hope to work on this week but I have quite a bit to do before our annual trip to Myrtle Beach. That's it for today :)
I would just LOVE to know how to make one of these darling sets. I've been doing an apprenticeship with a licensed songbird rehab lady this summer and this would be such a great "thank you" gift for her. Is there any way you could post some simple directions? Thanks...Pat
ReplyDeleteHi Pat! Thanks! I don't have the directions but I can tell you that we used Stampin Up chipboard set and covered all the birds and flowers with paper. The box is about 7 inches tall with an open top and about 4 inches wide. The top is just a piece of paper folded in half and the bottom is just a piece of flat paper centered underneath to give it support. The stamp set is from Stampin Up too for the cards. The cards are 3 x 6. Hope that helps, I will get the name of the creator and give you her blog address in another comment here once I find out. Thanks!

ReplyDeleteMy demo ordered and paid for the directions and wants to be sure the creator gets the credit. Apparently some people get upset, not saying that she would.
Super cute! Love it...and all your other recent creations too! Lovely work as always! : )
