Birdcage Card

I was a very lucky recipient of a collection of fantastic Secret Santa gifts.  One of them was the laser cut bird cage in this card.  Background is Michael Strong and the bird was cut with my Expression.  All card stock and inks are Club Scrap. 

My Little Houses

House #10 The House of Music

 So I am now up to 9 houses.  Above is House #8: The Dog House.   At the top is House #9 The Boat House

 House #7:  The House of Gratitude

Below #6:  The Bell Tower

Above House #1:  The First House on the Block

Below House #2:  Cozy Cottage in the Woods

Below House #3:  The House of Stone

Below House #4:  The House of Expressions

Below, House #5:  The Log Cabin

While I am making tags I also intend to make at least 12 of these little houses as well.  They are templates from Club Scrap.   Some are the Digi-Hybrid that I can download and print out on any paper I choose.  A few will be from Scholarship that are die cuts and I will alter.  These have been a lot of fun and as I make them they are placed on our Christmas tree with a light inside of each one.  I will keep adding as I go.

Well I'm giving it a try again this year.  I would really like to make all 12 tags using what I have...which shouldn't be a problem at all.  So today I played around with my Cricut and the Heritage cartridge.  I needed an old house and a picket fence and Heritage had just what I needed.   I really messed up the "snow" using paint too soon after inking with the Distress ink.  But some embossing with White Diamonds covered up the gooped paint.
