Share it Sunday! Free tutorial - Garden Birdhouses

It's Sunday!  So time to check out another Free tutorial for Share it Sunday!  I love that Spring has really sprung.  I see so many pictures of birds and nests and eggs and baby birds hatching - and it just makes me happy.  So what better way to encompass that then with a birdhouse kind of card.  Enjoy!
