Welcome To Our Love Nest

Hey y'all! Happy Friday! I hope you have had a fabulous week so far! Any fun plans for the weekend? The hubby is taking me on a date today! Yay! Katie Scarlett will go to doggy daycare for the day. Then, I need to go grocery shopping and we are planning on staying in this weekend. Katie Scarlett has training class on Saturday, but other than that we are gonna chill. I am going to cook a roast, so that will be super fun and yummy! I hope all of you guys have a wonderful, relaxing weekend!

Now, on to the scrappy stuff! I have a new post going up over at the Creative Charms blog today and I wanted to share my project with you here as well. With Valentine's Day just around the corner, I decided to create something to hang by our front door. I purchased this wooden birdhouse at a local craft store for a dollar. I decided to make it into a little 'love nest' for the holiday. I began by spritzing the bird house with some pink Glimmer Mist. This not only added color to my birdhouse, but was a fast process. It was dry and ready to be embellished in a matter of minutes!

"Love Nest"

Supplies Used

Cardstock: The Paper Studio

Patterned Paper: K & Co

Alphabet Stickers: Harmonie

Glimmer Mist: Tattered Angels

Ribbon, Felt Embellishments, Brads, Rhinestones, Butterfly: Creative Charms

Adhesive: Helmar, hot glue gun/glue sticks

Other: wooden birdhouse

 For the front of my birdhouse, I added bling, alphabet stickers, and a beautiful butterfly.

 I replaced the original cording that came with the birdhouse with some cute ribbon from Creative Charms to act as my hanging mechanism.

 Here is the side view of the birdhouse. I decorated both sides of the house the same.

 And here is a closer view of the felt embellishments...

Thank so much for taking a moment to drop by my blog today! I hope you have enjoyed this project!

Have a fabulous weekend!

Happy Scrappin'!!!
