I used heavyweight card stock for the structure of the house and then used the Notebook embossing folder to make "siding" pieces to go on all the walls. All the dies are from Tim Holtz's Village Die series.
The windows are scrap plastic colored with alcohol ink and coated with Stickles Rock Candy for extra sparkle.
I love the look of the light inside! Use a battery powered tea light.
Thanks for stopping by! I'm entering this into the Timeworn challenge on the Frilly & Funkie blog. Churches like this one are certainly from a by-gone era. =)

ReplyDeleteWow - this is gorgeous - I did miss your village as its my first time here but I'm off to have a look
ReplyDeleteThis is so wonderful Lisa! You've really nailed making these dwellings. This one has all that vintage charm and sits beautifully on your fabulous thrift store find. Thank you so much for joining us at Frilly and Funkie xx
ReplyDeleteOh how incredibly beautiful Lisa!!! <3 The crystal base really sets it off and I imagine it is magical all lit up. We're so thankful you shared in our Timeworn challenge at Frilly & Funkie. Hugs, Autumn

ReplyDeleteHi I realize that this post is 5 yo but where did you get the mini sisal trees
ReplyDeletehello, they are easy to find, especially around the holidays. I think this one was probably a Tim Holtz tree which come in a natural color and then you can dye them the color you want. You can also check places like etsy and ebay to find hand dyed trees.
