A Frame House with Narrow Tree Trunks Stencils
by Angie Cimbalo

Hello and welcome, it’s Angie here today featuring beautiful new products from the latest “Winter Days” release!

 

I used the new “Narrow Tree Trunks” 3 stencil set with these Distress Inks with an ink blending tool on stencil: 

Tea Dye, Rusty Hinge, and then “Soft Brown” ink from my stash. 

 

After removing the stencil I inked background bottom with Iced Spruce Distress Ink and the top with Salty Ocean, very, very lightly on both top and bottom.  

 

Now to add dimension to the trees I added colored pencil and white paint pen details on the stenciled area and the background.  Here’s a closer look: 

 

I cut the “A Frame House” die set from white card stock, and cut the “Little Bird Bunch” from red and white card stock.  I colored the A frame edge with the same brown inks, then added Iced Spruce to the house front, direct ink pad to paper method.  I colored all the other piece with inks and colored pencils, but cut the door front from red card stock.  I also added pencil and white gel pen to the red door too.

I assembled the birds and house and added colored pencils and white paint pen to everything.  I used Rustic Wilderness Distress Oxide on the wreath pieces before putting them together.  I popped up the birds and house.  Lastly I added snow details with a white paint pen, Cosmic Shimmer Fluffy Stuff (heated with heat gun) and then painted on Cosmic Shimmer Frosty Ultra Sparkle Paste with a small paint brush on the edges of the A frame. 

 

Once everything dried, I added the card to an A2 gray panel and then added that to a white card base.  Lastly I added the White Tab sentiment.
