make a little birdhouse in your soul...

Spending Sundays at the Farm is a little bit isolating for me...unless I find something to do while everyone else is immersed in the football/rugby and sunday papers...so this weekend I decided to be a good supportive buddy and have a go at Rosie's challenge over on the Art Adventure blog.

I really enjoyed making this little birdhouse~cum~pen pot out of the cardboard sleeve of a biscuit packet...and in my excitement to give it to Rosie I forgot to take a picture *doh!*

Bless her, she's sent me one, so you can see it too. :)

The colours don't seem to show well here, its honestly much prettier irl!! I made it from K&Co Addison papers which are a rich combination of turquoise and blue, and I've spiced it up with doodling, handmade Fimo beads and pink/yellow sequins by Doodlebug. The velvet ribbon around the top of the pot looks really sumptuous irl!! Why did I use the Addison papers? Because they are Rosie's favourite, of course ;) And of course, I thought it might persuade her to pop over here and support my little web~adventure too.!

Hope you like it Rosie xxx
