Cozy cottage


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.

Sizzix dies: Bigz Village Dwelling, Bigz Village Brownstone, Village Collection, Village Fixer Upper, Paper Village #1

Christmas ornaments Paper Village #2


Last year I made little houses with the Paper Village die from Tim Holtz and Sizzix.



The houses are small enough to fit in the Christmas tree.
This year Paper Village #2 came out.



And I used it to make another set of houses in the same style and colors.
You can find how to make this in my post ‘Christmas ornaments Paper Village
