In 2011, MFT is working harder than ever to inspire you, and we have come up with something we think you'll really enjoy. Our Design Team Creative Challenge is a new monthly feature, where we challenge our design team to explore their creative side using a specific theme, product or technique. This month, we're exploring the lush vintage style. Please visit the MFT Blog to see exactly what we've been up to, you'll find a full list of designers that have taken up the challenge!
I used the Homespun Birdhouse Die-namic and Stamp Set for my project. You may not think of the set for the holidays but I give it a holiday twist!!
I used vintage looking papers from Melissa Frances. I used the Icicle border Die-namic and attach the icicles to the bottom of my roof. I hang the birdhouse on a branch using the Branch With Leaves Die-namics. I finished off with ribbon, stitching, and lace.
I cut a bird to add to the house. The branch, roof, icicles, and ledge are sprinkled with glitter to give the effect of snow.
On the inside I stamped "Merry Christmas" using a sentiment from Clearly Sentimental About Christmas and "From Our House to Yours" using a sentiment from the Homespun Birdhouse stamp set.
Thanks for stopping by!
