Winter Village - Building Twelve

Hello everyone!

Here I am with the last building in my Winter Village - Building #12, Tomorrow I will post a recap of the entire village.

I've had a super fun time playing along with Linda Coughlin's Fifth Annual 12 Tags of Christmas - Funkie Junkie Style challenge.

It's been especially fun to see how her tags have inspired a variety of different projects from other crafters who have posted their responses to the challenge each week.



 
So let's start with the details of Building # 12 ...

Inspirations from Linda's Week 12 Tag: Background Technique, Pine Boughs, Pocket, Noel
Blank Canvas Building:  Building A

I started out with white cardstock.

I used the wrinkle free Distress Ink techniques with some Tumble Glass ink.

Then I sprayed each panel with both silver and white.

Next I used some silver paper andcut out three different evergreen boughs using dies from Tim Holtz "Holiday Greens" thinlet die set.

I also used "noel" from another TH thinlets die set.

I left room on the bottom of two panels for snow banks.

I cut some snow banks out of glittery cardstock.

I used one of TH Metallic Sticker Labels with one of his rub-ons - "warm wishes" - and tucked that behind the snow bank.

Here are the panels...

And here's where this building fits into the village.

I added some Tim Holtz Tinsel Twine around the top, and as you can see I took this photo after I completed the base.

Check back tomorrow for a post on the completed village with lots more photos and a video.








So that's my last building done and I'll post a link on the challenge page.
