This project is inspired by the color GREEN!!
The colors consist of Close To My Heart colors New England Ivy, Sweet Leaf and Topiary.
Using the Cricut Artiste cartridge, I cut out the Milk Carton using Topiary Cardstock (Fit to Page). Using Colonial White cardstock, I cut the roof at 3.25 by 6.25. Using the wood grain embossing folder, I used New England Ivy pigment ink and inked the embossing folder before embossing. I then selected hearts (standard and scalloped) from Artiste cartridge and sized to .50. I colored hemp cord in New England Ivy and attached the Sweet Leaf stamped hearts to the hemp cord and added Artisan studs between each heart. I attached the heart pendant with 2 mini clothes pins. For the opening, I cut two oval shapes at 1.75" and 2". Then I used hemp and glued around ovals. I added a single heart with an Artisan stud. I then used a swag wood decal for perch. I cut a shape for the February Stamp of the Month (2.50 x 2.50). I used gold embossing powder and heat embossed on pre-cut shape.
Artisan Studs, Wood decals and mini clothes pins will be available February 1st!!
So thank you for sharing the fun I had with 3 shades of green!

What a sweet project! I love seeing all the 3D projects from the Artiste cartridge "in the flesh". The details, like the flourish perch, and heart-strung clothes-line are great. Thanks for joining the "go green" challenge at Color My Heart this week.
Love that gold embossing with the green colors! The clothes pins are fabulous, and I just cannot wait to play with mine!
Great job! The Cricut Artiste makes fabulous milk cartons to show case your wonderful job and the gold embossing adds a wonderful rich tone and feel to the three shades of green. Thanks for the entry at Color my Heart challenge.
What an adorable birdhouse! I love the side perch. You did a great job of constructing it and also explaining it. Thanks for the inspiration and for playing along with us at Color My Heart. We hope you'll join us again soon.
