Miniature paper houses

Another little sneak peek of what is inside the Feburary issue of Paper Crafters Sampler "Baskets, Bonnets and Bunnies".

The design team members created their very own version of a miniature bird house (template inside the February sampler).

First up, Cherie Franklin.  A big thanks to Cherie for contributing the mini-bird house template. 

Next up, Lisa Hensley.  What do you think of that copper plated for the roof?  Classy! 

Look at Ms. Tiffany Bauer's cutie creation?  Wouldn't this make a wonderful gift for a hostess?

Here's my little bird house.   You know, this can easily be transformed into a pin for a shower?  LOTS of variety with one little template.

If you'd like to see additional views of the design teams project, simply select the link for each team member and you'll be transported to their blog.

Interested in learning how to create these little bird houses?   The template is provided in the February issue of PCS.  To purchase the issue, select the $12.99 link located on the sidebar.
