I hand stitched (Embroidered) the white tree to the blue  Angel Wing background with silver metallic embroidery thread and stitched the pearls in place with the same thread.

 

Everything else is pretty much self-explanatory.

*SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS / ALTERATIONS:

 

1.  I cut several of the ‘Leafy Branches’ from the same Brown cardstock I used for the ‘Branch Tree’ and randomly attached them to the tree to form the canopy of leaves. Then I cut the same number of ‘Leafy Branches’ from Green cardstock, clipped off the leaves and put them over the brown leaves to create the tree’s green leafy foliage.  

2.  The only other alterations I made were to shorten my little Victorian Lady and the Lamp Post.  She was a bit too tall to look proportionate to the house so I cut off her feet, hemmed her dress and put her feet back on. The Lamp Post only needed a small amount taken off the bottom of it because the front fold of the card raised it too high.

3.   Everything else is pretty much self-explanatory.

This next project is an electrically lit Christmas House that was inspired by one of my Dutch Paper Craft's design team sisters, Petra Manenschijn, from Holland. Her Tea Light Christmas Candle was truly inspirational and she graciously allowed me to expand upon her idea and this is the result. Thank you, Petra! Oma Pat

                GREEN RHINESTONES (For center of the Poinsettias on the inside corners)

 

*SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS / ALTERATIONS:

 

1.       I cut a 5 1/8” x 5/8” thick, square of wood. Mounted it in the center of a wooden plaque with screws in each corner. Drilled a 1” hole through the two layers of wood and secured the light socket in place so that the rim of the socket was flush with the wood surface. Then screwed in light bulb. This way you can change out the bulbs with ease or simply use a votive candle instead of the electric light.

 

2.       I cut eight (8) of the houses. (Four from the foil side and four from the white side.) I glued white vellum to the back side of four of the houses and then glued the white sides together, giving me four (4) doubled sided gold houses with vellum windows. (One house for each side of the 5 1/8” square block of wood, thus forming the walls of my square Christmas House.    I repeated this process (with the exception of the Vellum) with the Green Foil to make the background trees. Only I used ten (10) trees, five green and five in the gold to net me five (5) double sided Foil Christmas Trees. Green on one side and gold on the other.

 

3.       I punched holes in each corner of the roofs, threaded red ribbon through them and then tied a knot, binding them together for added stiffness and stability. Wrapped the roof top with the sparkly red and gold crochet thread and then placed a poinsettia at each corner.

 

4.       I hot glued my animals and embellishments to suit. My kitten was glued to the rug I made with the Petra’s Small Oval Die Set and I took some Christmas Red Foil Embroidery Thread and tangled it around his wee little back paws. Stickled his play toy with Christmas Red Stickles to make it look like a ball of yarn. And boy is he having a good time! J

 

5.       If you have any questions, please email me for further directions and I will be glad to expand on any aspect of this project.
