This week the theme is animals. You can make whatever you want as long as it has an animal on it, and of course you don't have to use a Cute Daisy May download (although we do love to see what you make with them), you can use whatever you like.
I have tried something REALLY different this week and have used one of Linnies Helping Hands Templates. Now this is my very first time using a template like this so please be gentle with me lol. I have quite a few pics to show you the whole thing so just keep on scrolling lol.
I used the Farmhouse template and this is the house with the doors closed. I had to tip the house a bit so I could fit it all in the photo (ok except a little bit at the top that I cut off lol), so my doors have opened a bit, but when it is standing straight, they close nicely.
This is the inside of the house and barn with the doors open. I used 2 Cute Daisy May downloads and a stamp called Loves "horses" which can be purchased at Aries Crafts. (see link in my sidebar)
A close up of the rooms and the Daisy May images (sorry it's a bit blurry) which I coloured with Copics. The papers I used as "wallpaper" are K&Co.
A closer look at inside the barn. The horses were embossed with clear detail embossing powder then I coloured with my Copics. I have never coloured a stamp that is as detailed as this or any that are "real looking", so this was a big challenge for me but I did enjoy it :) I added some hay as the horse stamp is 2 horses heads so I had to use something under them so they didn't look as if they were floating. I got the picture of the hay off the internet. (copywrite free of course).
And finally if you are still with me lol, a view from the top so you can see the roof and how the doors open.Oh all the papers I used for the building, brick, wood and tile affect are all ones I got a while ago from a dolls house website. My Daughter Rhianna has a dolls house and I was looking for nice wallpaper and bits for it and came accross these too. I knew they would come in handy one day :) I also used some brads for handles on the doors.
Phew, that was one long post for one DT project lol and I still have my Squigglefly card to post today, but I will do that later.
Thanks for looking and I hope you will pop on over to the Cute Daisy May blog to see the other girls cards and join in with the challenge too:)
