I used the paper from Challenge One as texture on this project. The birdie is from there as well.
Turned out great!
Edit: spelling
Did you make them to size? They would make sweet tree ornaments to fill in the big open spaces on the tree.
I cut it to the size that Michelle made them to, I did not need to change anything at all except add a texture.
I reduced the pattern by 75% to get a smaller (and still very cute) birdhouse. I am posting a picture of 2 because I got 2 on a piece of paper. These still assemble very easily, just a little smaller. I used the Snowmen on Skates Paper Pack from LD (now retired) for the texture. Printed on Epson Premium Presentation Paper (matte, 44#) at a setting of 14 with the red cap on the Silhouette.
Brigit, I love how you thought outside the box and did the luminary- brilliant! And quite beautiful.
I did mine actually a little bigger. I thought it would make a nice treat box. I blocked out the hole in one and the other I covered it acetate. I went one step further and glued the lid or roof on only one side and added a magnetic closure on the other. I plan to put a small little gift in this for Christmas. I can almost fit a regular ornament in here- it bulges. Should have decent enough room for something special. ;>

I used digital paper from EchoPark and printed them double sided on my printer.
Michelle, I always love all the detail you put into your projects. You know how to give them that special something!
Papergrandma-- That is too funny to see Santa in there!! What a surprise!
Papergrandma - Love the Santa & tree inside. Maybe birds get presents too
I have been busy running kids around to all there activities today.

When applying them, you start at the bottom and work your way up. That's how I did it once on a project.
Elizabeth, love the roof and the fence. Nice job!
PaperGrandma, nice idea putting a scene on the inside. Love it!
Here's mine.....yep that is a tealight hanging out the bottom.......:)
I wanted it to look like there are little presents in there for the birds, but it was harder than I anticipated to make small boxes.
I love the birdhouse file though! Thank you for sharing it!
