Bird House

click to enlarge
The theme for Creative Tuesday is 'little house' and here's
my interpretation... Mrs. Bird and her sweet, tiny house.
An English Tudor nestled in an oak tree. What a cute
place for her 'home sweet home'! :)

  15. Awww Betsy, you would make a great children's book illustrator. Your little house gives me a great idea for a book. I bet you could write one about the family that lives in this house.
