Tweet treats

While I was at the store last Saturday, I picked up this Sizzix birdhouse die. I've been drawn to it for awhile now but everytime I get distracted, I end up putting the die back. I made it into a treat holder using the fold method. Can you see all the green lifesavers through the peephole?
Notice that the scraps look familiar? Sometimes I get so lazy but need to run paper through the Xyron machine so I just go through my drawer of Xyron scraps.
By the way, that bird and vine is a punch that my gf Teri gave me awhile back and I finally pulled it out from my punch drawer. I have so many punches stacked on each other that I tend to forget what punches I have. The red rose is from the Sizzix 3-D flowers die.
Here's a closer look at how I made the treat house. It's folded at the bottom and attaches at the top with a glue dot.
Sorry I haven't been posting as often but lately it's been really hot downstairs in my craft room and I feel less inspired when I'm hot and sweaty.
Thanks for stopping by and hope you're have a terrific Thursday!
