Finally, after a cold wet winter, spring has really arrived in North Carolina! I have birds nesting on both my front and back porches and hummingbirds flitting about their feeders. I've started planting my vegetable garden, the trees are blooming, and everything outside is fresh with new color. I love this time of year!
I made this sweet little birdhouse to celebrate and embellished the roof with some pretty flowers that I made. These are so simple to make. Here's a video showing you how to assemble the birdhouse that iss cut with an XL die from Sizzix's Eileen Hull Designs line of dies. Eileen designs so many great 3D dies, you'll love them all!

I used Graphic 45's Floral Shoppe collection to make the birdhouse, it's gorgeous floral images were perfect for this project!
These flowers are deceptively easy to make. I'm not one to spend hours making exquisite delicate flowers, I'm not that patient! For me, it's diecut, give 'em a twist and a curl, bam! Done!
