This was a raw wood bird cage purchased for $6 at JoAnn's.
I wasn't sure how I would use the French Country paper! Love how it turned out!
I always knew I wanted to put a mini inside. So glad that I was finally able to pry the back open!
I made the mini from scratch using chipboard. That way I could be sure that it would fit perfectly!
Love the inside. Looks like it has an area rug, LOL!
Another look at the back and the mini.
I left the sides pretty plain, But yes, I did fussy cut the paper to have that diamond effect!
A look at the left front corner.
The big flower is from BoBunny and the little 1 inch birdcage is, I believe, Tim Holtz. I made those tiny flowers! Given the 1 inch metal birdcage, you can see just how tiny the flowers are!
I used a Creative Memories punch to create all the butterflies on the barn! A little bling simulates flying!
The binding of the mini, serves as the window background.
The mini is 5.5 x 3
The mini just pulled out of the barn!
Mini inside front cover and page 1. Note the small envelope and tag on the cover.

Pages 8 & 9 and the tags that slide into the side and image pockets in and on page 8.
Pages 10 & 11 and the tags that slide into the top and image pockets in page 10.
Pages 12 & 13 and the tags that slide into the side pocket of page 12. I left the page pocket empty for now.
Pages 14 & 15 and the tags that slide into the top pocket of page 12. The page pocket holds a couple of images from the 8x8 paper.
Pages 16 & 17. Page 16 has a tag that slides into a side pocket and page 17 has a picture that is held by clear photo corners.
Page 18 & the back inside cover. Another pocket holding some images from the collection.

WoW! Gorgeous! Carri~Abusybee
Oh my goodness M-C you have really knocked this one out of the ball park!! It's amazing, I love Graphic 45 but have not bought this collection for much the same reasons as yourself, but now I am most definitely converted!! The barn is so beautiful right down to the little birdcage in the window and the mini is just adorable, I have yet to venture into these but with your tuition and inspiration, I don't see how I can go wrong! Thank you so much for sharing this gorgeous creation, you should be so proud of yourself and rightly so.
