Whimsical Birdhouse

Hey crafty friends!  I hope you are all happy and healthy and getting your papercrafting fun on!  I have had so much free time lately that I was able to put this lovely birdhouse together!  I had such a fun time making it!  I hope it inspires you!!

I started with a blank wooden birdhouse that you can find here.

I sprayed my birdhouse with some Distress Spray.  It didn't take very well and it turned it an ugly green color!  In the end, though, you can't tell!  

Using the Whimsical Hues Collection Kit, I began to cover my walls with paper.  This was time consuming as the birdhouse wasn't perfectly assembled and had some irregular nooks and crannies, but I just kept cutting pieces and making them fit!

I made a whole bunch of flowers using the Soft Floral Oriental Paper and Dress My Craft Flower Making Dies.  (Scroll to the bottom to see all the products used for this project!)

To make the different roofs and awnings, I used a Scalloped Border Punch, the Flower Chain Border Punch, and the Window and Pocket Die.

I added sequins to all of my arches.  I used the Princess Mix and the Pink Pastel mixes.

Here are all the products I used to create this gorgeous birdhouse:
