is it really *MARCH*? i can't believe we've zoomed through one sixth of 2011 already! of course, the beginning of the new month not only means we're that much closer to ♥SPRING♥ (hooray!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) but also that we've got some amazing designer preview projects to show off before the gorgeous march pixie dust paperie kit goes on sale march 5th! we've even got a fabulous guest designer this month: the lovely cheryl nelson has worked her magic on our goodies and the combination is well worth the trip over to the pixie blog, i assure you!

but if you go today--and i hope you will--you'll see how i had the best possible crafty time turning a sweet little $1 wooden birdhouse from michaels into THIS lovely bit of decor:


with the exception of the tiny white flowers and the adorable mushroom bird (more excellent craft store bargains) everything i used to make this: from the gorgeous mix of papers... (american crafts, webster's pages & pink paislee, to name a few!) to the fabulous pearl bauble... to the super-useful memory pin that holds the sign comes from this month's gorgeous, elegant and delightfully spring-like FLORIBUNDA kit, which goes on sale this saturday! there are more pics, and a bit of construction detail on the pixie blog! ♥
