- Distress Ink: Brushed corduory

- Big Shot or other die cutting system

- Sizzix Tattered florals or floral Die (I used a sizzix bigz die made for stampin up)
- Sizzix caged bird die

Instructions
Take a large piece of chipboard. Mine measures around 14" x 10".
Cut the roof into a triangle Shape. Take a bird cage you have pre cut with a die and draw around it on the chipboard. Cut slightly smaller. At the same time, mark where the clock will go and cut out the hanging notch.
Take 2 pieces of PP. You will need to join them together. Cover the whole thing. Sand the edges and ink with distress ink.
Take the chipboard birdcage and attach black CS to the back. Attach the whole thing to the gap you cut out.
Next take your clock blank and cover with matching papers, sand and ink. Insert into the house and secure with hot glue
Cut 1" chipboard strips, mitre together to make roof struts. Cover with patterned paper and add to the house. Add a scalloped border under the eaves.
Add a 1/2" chipboard strip across the bottom of the house. Cover with PP.
Next make some flowers. I die cut a stack out using plain printer paper. Dampen them and twist around a pen. Leave them to dry over night before un-scrunching. Glue them together and spray to the required colour.
Die cut some tattered leaves and attach to the house.
Start to add your flowers all around the bottom of the house and around the birdcage window.
Add some maya road butterflies and pearls.
Once you have all the flowers attached add some cup hooks through the chipboard piece at the bottom for hanging keys on.
