Good Sunday morning. I was recently chosen to be a member of the Craft a Scene design team. My project today was made for the February challenge to create a winter scene.
Instead of creating a card for the winter scene challenge I chose to create a tea light shade that fits over a wine glass. I designed the scene on vellum which really reflects the flame from the candle inside the glass.
I printed the shade template and cut out using deckle scissors. I don’t know about you but I am not really a good straight line cutter with regular scissors and using deckle scissors allows for a more relaxed cut. LOL! I used the Kittie Kits The Moose is Loose cabin and trees images to create my scene. I stamped the trees all the way around the shade using olive craft ink, leaving a space open to stamp the cabin, and embossed with clear embossing powder. When stamping the tree images I had to keep turning the shade template slightly and keep the trees in line following the curve of the shade. If not the tree line would have been crooked. I masked the trees on both side of the opening for the cabin and then stamped the cabin with chocolate chip craft ink and embossed with clear embossing powder. I lightly painted the cabin with close to cocoa craft ink and the windows with summer sun craft ink and embossed with clear embossing powder. I painted a thin layer of white craft ink on the roof of the cabin and along the ground area and embossed with white embossing powder. The final step was to create the falling snow using a tiny brush and dotting the sky area white craft ink and embossing with white embossing powder.
I used ATG adhesive to attach the shade together and then added a strip of artichoke cardstock cut out with my deckle scissors around the top of the shape.
If you would like to make this shade you can find the template on the Technique Lovers Challenge 198. Don’t forget to hop over and check out all the Craft a Scene design team projects.
