I'm just a simple gal in need of a major make over. A granny to little Noah and enjoying every minute of it when we see him. I enjoy designing cards and free files when life permits me to do so. Thank you for stopping by, Enjoy!

Tuesday....

Color Challenge over at the Outlawz's.





This weeks yummy colors were chosen by Teresa, don't you just love that bunny?  Check out her beautiful furry family members and her amazing blog over at tickellexpressions. 




The twist this week was to add a gingham pattern. 


Here's my twist with the gingham paper on the roof.




First I painted the bird house with a bright pink, then added the printed papers and Mod Podge'd the whole house, added the buttons and little embellishments.  


The pretty PopKut flower is from www.bosskutdiecuts.com, # 0787 Flower Florette.  Then I added the pine needle branches #BKD070 Pinecone and Leaves by Judy Stark. The vine on the top of the bird house is # 0983 Vine by Phyllis Parkins.


The bird was a cut out from my Slice machine.


I"m sorry for the MIA again both on my blog and visiting all of you, life has been very crazy to say the least and there's a lot going on, life never gets boring!


Enjoy, blessings, Lori m
