There are more photos and tutorial info over at Cuttlebug Challenge, but the basics are to use hot glue to roll the pages, creating the inside of the birdhouse. Paint the binding and edge of the book, if you want to change the color, then add designer paper for the roof. Add trim and embellishments, birds, a dowel for a perch, a ribbon for hanging, and voila' ~ one very chic home decor piece! Wouldn't it be darling with a Christmas theme?
For this one I used my new French Manor Cricut Cartridge that is exclusive to Cricut Circle members. The birds are from Straight from the Nest.

I hope you'll check out the projects of my design team mates, and also give the Cuttlebug Challenge a try!
So what book did you think is for the birds??? LOL
Happy crafting~
