Easter Gifts.....

My friend Val very kindly cut some of the Stamp UP milk cartons  out for me and I made two little bird houses from them as little Easter gifts for my granddaughters teachers.

For the roof I cut out a piece of Chocolate Chip  card 4" x 2" then punched out a few rows of scallops using the S.U. scallop punches and glued them on.
Using the 1" circle punch punched a hole in the, I should really have used the larger 1 3/4" punch to give a bigger opening.  The SU bird really is a little bit big but my Granddaughter thought they were brilliant particularly as I popped some acetate inside to cover the opening and filled the little houses with Cadburys Chocolate eggs....yum yum... I attached the roof by punching a hole with my Crop-a-dial and then threading through some ribbon.

Grace made her own Easter Cards to go with the bird houses using the S.U. Good Egg set but unfortunately I forgot to ask Mummy to take a picture of them....
