Today I’m sharing a spring house and truck scene card made using several dies by Rubbernecker. I modified the Spooky House with a stenciled brick pattern to create a normal house for my scene. I paired the house with the Winter Tree, leaves from the Small Ivy, Truck, Grass, Small Birds and Tiny Flower Buds.
The Cloudy and Grass Card Base
- Cut an A2 sized piece of white cardstock, score and fold to create the card base.
- Create the cloudy background using Tumbled Glass ink, a cloud stencil and a large blender brush.
- Use green cardstock to cut two grass sections.
- Apply double stick tape to the back grass section and attach it to the card base.
- Use double stick tape to attach the front grass section to the card base.
The Brick House
- Use Kraft cardstock to cut the house base and gray cardstock to cut the roof and window sections.
- Secure the brick stencil and house with masking tape.
- Apply Antique Linen, Rusty Hinge, Fired Brick, Pumice Stone and Vintage Photo inks using blender brushes and mini applicators to create the colorful brick pattern.
- Remove the brick stencil and run the Antique Linen ink pad directly over the house to apply color to the mortar lines and blend all the brick colors together.
- Apply pieces of mounting tape to the back of the house, tuck it in behind the brass sections and attach to the card base.
The Tree
- Use Kraft cardstock to cut the tree.
- Apply Antique Linen ink to the tree using by swiping the ink pad directly over the cardstock.
- Cut several small ivy sections using green cardstock.
- Attach the individual leaves from the small ivy sections to the tree branches using glossy accents.
- Apply rolled up double stick tape to the back trunk and branch sections of the tree.
- Tuck the tree ink behind the grass layer and attach to the card base.
The Truck
- Use blue, gray and black cardstock cardstock to cut the truck sections and trim.
- Attach the fender section to the truck base using rolled up strips of double stick tape.
- Assemble the tire and wheel sections using glossy accents and attach to the truck base using glossy accents.
- Use glossy accents to attach the headlight, bumpers and door handle to the truck base.
- Apply pieces of mounting tape to the back of the truck and attach it to the grass sections.
The Ivy, Tiny Flowers and Birds
- Cut the tiny flower buds using yellow cardstock and form them using a small tipped stylus and molding pad.
- Cut the small ivy sections in two and attach flowers to them using glossy accents.
- Tuck the ivy and flower sections in behind the grass and attach using glossy accents.
- Create two tiny ivy and single flower sections and attach them to the windows using glossy accents.
- Cut small birds using yellow cardstock, apply Wild Honey ink using a mini applicator and color their beaks using a black marker.
- Finish the scene by applying small pieces of mounting tape to the back of the birds and attach them to the card base.
I had so much fun creating this house and truck scene card. If I had it to do over again I would have used aqua cardstock for the truck instead of the blue. I think it would have blended in better with the cloudy background and house colors. Oh well…..next time! Check out this Pinterest link for more house scene card inspiration.
