Hello everyone!!! Welcome back on these pages...today I want to show you my new project for this week's Challenge over at SIMON SAYS STAMP MONDAY CHALLENGE BLOG...and soon became a new decoration for my Christmas tree!
SIMON SAYS...CHRISTMAS/WINTER HOLIDAYS...
Non so se lo avete visto, ma QUI potete trovare un fantastico Tutorial che il nostro amato TIM HOLTZ ha postato sul suo Blog...la versione 'Timholtziana' di una palla di neve...un villaggio innevato racchiuso in una sveglia...geniale! Quindi ho pensato di creare una mia personale versione di una scena innevata...ovviamente utilizzando i materiali a mia disposizione...
Come per il mio post precedente, Time for Icy Inspiration, ho creato una scena invernale notturna usando sia i Distress Inks che gli Oxides...ho fatto la base partendo dal basso con D.I. Cracked Pistachio, Peacock Feathers, Salty Ocean, Stormy Sky e Black Soot. Ho asciugato e sono ripassata con gli Oxides, Cracked Pistachio, Peacock Feathers, Broken China, Faded Jeans e Black Soot. Asciugato ed accentuato con D.I. Stormy Sky e D.O. Black Soot, poi ripassati i bordi con D.I. Black Soot. Il solito giochino dello 'Spritz-n-Flick' e poi gocce di inchiostro bianco per simulare i fiocchi di neve.
Nel mio ultimo giretto all'HobbyShow del Garda ho trovato questa deliziosa fustella, perfetta per questo progetto! Ho ritagliato sia da cartoncino nero che bianco, utilizzando quest'ultimo solo per gli alberi innevati..una volta incollato al suo posto ho dipinto di acrilico bianco la base ed aggiunto della modeling paste per creare qua e là dei piccoli mucchietti di neve.
I don't know if you already saw it, but HERE you can find the amazing Tutorial that our Beloved TIM HOLTZ posted on his Blog...an enchanted Snowglobe Clock...genius! So I have decided to create my own version of a snowy scene...using what I had in my stash...
As for my previous post, Time for Icy Inspiration, I have created a winter night scene using both Distress Inks and Oxides...starting from bottom to top, used D.I. Cracked Pistachio, Peacock Feathers, Salty Ocean, Stormy Sky and Black Soot, I dried then went over with my Oxides, Cracked Pistachio, Peacock Feathers, Broken China, Faded Jeans e Black Soot. Dried again and enhanced with D.I. Stormy Sky and D.O. Black Soot, then used D.I. Black Soot on the edges. Time for the old 'Spritz-n-Flick' trick then few drops of white ink for the falling snow.
During my latest visit to a craft market fair, I bought this lovely die...perfect for this scene! Die-cut both from black and white cardstock, using the white only for the trees...once glued in place I painted with white acrylic paint the base and added modeling paste here and there, for the snow on the ground.
Ora è il momento di assemblare il tutto....Ho deciso di utilizzare la metà di una sfera acrilica del diametro di circa 15,5 cm e dopo averla rivestita di carta riso, ho incollato il cartoncino decorato in precedenza, ho aggiunto della paglietta, pigne decorative, nastro e delle fustellate utilizzando le seguenti fustelle Sizzix/Tim Holtz Alterations: 'Mini Holiday Greens' , 'Tattered Poinsettia', la parola 'PEACE' del set 'Vintage Tidings' e 'Mini Snowflake Rosette'.
Now it's time to assemble the Wintery Scene...I decided to use half of an acrylic Christmas ball, diameter approx 6 inches, coated with rice paper and glued the decorated scene in place. Added some wood shavings, decorative pinecones, ribbon and die-cuts from Sizzix/Tim Holtz Alterations dies: 'Mini Holiday Greens', 'Tattered Poinsettia', 'Vintage Tidings' (PEACE) and 'Mini Snowflake Rosette'.
Ed ecco la mia nuova decorazione al suo posto, sull'albero...
And there it is, my new ornament in its rightful place on the tree...
EDIT: con questo progetto partecipo anche alla sfida mensile 'Winter Wonderland ' sul blog 'A VINTAGE JOURNEY' ...
I submit this project also to the monthly challenge 'Winter Wonderland' over at 'A VINTAGE JOURNEY' Blog...
