Stags House .....



Here is a little house made as a standing Christmas decoration ....

I used a die and diecut the house parts from heavy card.  The roof was made from a strip of corrugated board.  The walls were covered in decorative papers before assembly.





The deer was stamped in black archival ink onto Kraft card and diecut.  This was mounted on the front of the house on a foam pad.  The star at the top was diecut and heat embossed in kaleidascope embossing powder.  The decoration was made from twigs, greenery and white cones tied together with natural twine.  A little bow of red gingham ribbon was then added with hot glue and the whole thing attached with hot glue.




The roof was daubed with white acrylic paint before distressing to remove some of the top layer of corrugated.  Finally very coarse glass glitter was adhered on hot glue on the roof and at the base to finish the house .....
