LAD Blog Hop Day 6

WOOHOO!!! Today is my turn. I am so excited to be able to showcase one of my favorite sets for you all. It was hard to pick just ONE favorite. I love them all. But I chose Bless This Nest.

As soon as I saw this tutorial by Kelly Lunceford, I knew I wanted to make one using Bless This Nest. This matchbox is so easy to make. I saved some blue chicks from Easter just to make this box. LOL! One row of marshmallow chicks fits inside this matchbox perfectly. I added some brown shredded paper for twigs for the chicks to nest on. Just as I am typing this, I'm thinking I need to add some eggs underneath! How fun would that be to add some Malted Ball eggs?! I've got to save this idea for next year. Ü I used Nestibilites Labels Two dies for cutting the nest design and the polka dot behind it. I also added some tiny rick rack from my vintage stash to finish it off.

Thank you for stopping by! Don't forget to hurry over to Lizzie Anne's today to order this set. Today ONLY can you get it for 40% off!
