I had so much fun on Saturday making a Blue Christmas House for the Splitcoaststampers Inspiration Challenge. I had to make another one on Sunday using more traditional colors.
The Home Made house template and images can be found at Papertrey as well as the fence image from the Board and Beams set.
I think these little houses are so cute on their own but to me the real charm the addition of the Christmas decorations. I created little evergreen wreaths with MS punch for the peak and over the door and tucked evergreen in behind the fence. Snow was added to the roof by painting Mod Podge on with a brush and applying Polar White Flower Soft. I used Glossy Accents dotted on to the evergreen wreaths and hedges by applying dots of Glossy Accents to adhere the Flower Soft.
While I was in the house making mood on Sunday I decided to create a little birdhouse with a template offered on Nicole Heady’s blog last year. I thought the little punched bird was the perfect addition with the evergreen sprigs and berries.
I hope you are having a great week.
As much as I loved the blue house Kittie, I think I love this one even more, I’m such a traditional girl . . . LOL! The bird house is just adorable. These make fabulous holidays gifts for family and friends, they’re so perfect for placing on an end table or cocktail table throughout the holidays.
This house is just stunning. I could live in this house :).
Both houses are totally adorable Kittie!
Oh I think I may like this one even more, so pretty, love the colors!
Oh Kittie, your house and the birdhouse are gorgeous! Awesome decorations! Can I be on your gift list? 😉
Oh Kittie, truly MAGNIFICENT work. The house will be a cherished keepsake by it’s lucky new owner. *sigh* !!!
