TH Village Winter Dwelling & Daisy the Elf

Click here for Guest Design DLART Vintage Bottle Brush Be Merry Card.
 
Made a house using Tim Holtz Village Dwelling & Village Winter Dwelling that can be used as a decoration and looks nice when a flickering tea light is placed inside.

Used Kraft cardstock for house walls & chimney.

The scale of this house had me guessing as what to use for a wreath on the door. Used a Cricut cartridge with size 1/2" for height of wreath. Was not able to cut that small with my former Cricuts without it tearing but the Cricut Explore Air can cut small with no problem. I cut multiples of the wreath and stacked them for dimension. Added some mini red gems. Added a red ribbon bow, tightened the bow & trimmed it to the size it needed to be for small wreath.

Since the tree stamp was small and my fussy cutting something that small is not the best I used a tree punch to punch out the stamped tree. 

Daisy the Elf is happy with the glitter snowman on her dress.
