This birdhouse ornament was purchased from Michael's as a plain cardboard ornament. I painted it with Acrylic paint and then, used the Layers of Color Art Stencil "Botanical Swirls" and T Holtz distress Ink to stencil in the greenery on the house.
The flexibility of the stencils allows you to stencil things that you could not stamp because of space. I just moved the stencil around until I found a part of the pattern that I wanted on each side of this ornament and stenciled. I then decorated the bird house using the Layers of Color Art Stamp sets "Backyard Birds" and "Nature Walk" for the flowers. I colored with Copics, cut out and popped up on dimensionals. For an organic feel I tied on some raffia at the top. This was so simple.
As a bird lover, I collect bird houses and chickadees so I just had to try this! Ornaments are not just for Christmas you know! :) (Don't know if you were wondering...but the pretty swirled pattern on the paper under my birdhouse is another sneak peek at some dp I made using another of these new Art Stencils... Natural Flourish. Such a quick and easy way to have some great dp ready to go!)
DON'T FORGET.... Monday, June 14th will be the RELEASE PARTY for these art stencils! From now until June 14th you can sign up to win the complete release of all 7 Art Stencils! Visit the Layers of Color Blog to sign up NOW!
