WPlus9 | Snowy Holiday Houses Cards. Video

Hello all! Last week was a new release week for WPlus9 and I had the pleasure of creating a few projects featuring one of the new sets – Holiday Houses. I personally love stamp sets where there are several elements that can be used to build various scenes and this set is just like that.

CARDS DETAILS

I knew I wanted to make several cards with these adorable houses, so I started by stamping all of them onto watercolor paper. I stamped houses, trees and also snowballs and used Distress ink (I’m listing all colors I used below) to quickly watercolor them. The watercolor technique I used is described in detail in this video.

I sketched out a few ideas in my sketch pad and followed those to arrange houses into scenes.

The card shown above features a busy city with lots of houses, snow and trees. I used various types of adhesive to adhere houses onto the card front and create a waterfall type look. The top row of houses is adhered using regular adhesive (no dimension), second row is adhered using thin foam adhesive, third row is adhered using regular foam adhesive and last row is adhered using double layer of foam adhesive. Be sure to click on the little thumbnail images below the large photo to see details.

The card below features several houses sitting on a snowy hill. The hill was cut out of white cardstock, I didn’t use a die here, but rather traced a plate and cut a curve using scissors. Click on the little thumbnail images below the large photo to see details.

And here’s the last card, probably my favorite. This one features one house and a big and bold sentiment. The blue “bright” banner was stamped onto watercolor paper, colored using same color used for the house, die cut using coordinating die and foam mounted onto the card.
