Hi there,
It’s Tanja here and today I am going to show you how to turn the adorable little birdhouse into a Christmas Ornament.
Step 1: Die Cutting
- die cut all the elements needed using dies from the Birdhouse set
- use white Soft Finish Cardstock and woodgrain cardstock
Step 2: Coloring
- color the elements with Alcohol Markers
- add shading to the birdhouse with Distress Oxide Ink Ground Espresso
- use Faber-Castell Polychromos Pencils to add shading to the other elements
- add highlights to the lights with a white gel pen
Step 3: Creating Glitter Embossing Powder
- add some Versamark to the snow bank and heat-emboss it with clear embossing powder
- before the embossing powder sets sprinkle on some Cold Diamond Silk Microfine Glitter
- heat the snow bank up again and the glitter melts into the clear embossing powder
Step 4: Assembly
- use clear double-sided adhesive or liquid glue to assemble the birdhouse
- before gluing on the roof make sure to add a strand of natural twine as a hanger
I hope you got inspired.
