For this cottage I used three different dies from the (paper) village series from Tim Holtz.
The middle part I made with the bigz die Village dwelling. This is a die from the old village series.
The side parts I made with the new dies from the Village collection. I cut out house 1 and cut it in two pieces. Then I glued each piece on a side of the bigger house.
On the front is the entryway. I made this part with a house from the paper village dies. These are smaller, so they make a lovely entryway.
I colored the house with acrylic paints with the dry brushing technique.
For the plateau I used grey board to make a box. I used the 3d embossing folder cobblestone to cover the sides and make a path to the house.
Finished the garden with some scenery embellishments, like the trees and flowers.
And added some lights for thar cozy glow.
