The design team over at SCD really know how to make a challenge a challenge LOL. When I saw the theme of the week "Houses" I thought blimey whatever will I be able to do for that. Having just bought some new stamps none of which really hit the spot for this week. I nearly didn't bother. Then whilst quietly watching Nigella Lawson who talked about Gingerbread houses I knew exactly what needed to be done. Funny where inspiration comes from isn't it. HID kindly down-loaded me a template and I draw out the gingerbread house. I painted it with my pearly water colours and punched out the roof tiles ( a Martha Stewart punch) made the tiny holly leaves and added stickles and white acrylic for snow. The gingerbread man punch I have had in my stash for years nice to find a renewed use for it, then just added stars and icicles and a fab ribbon. Great Challenge Thanks DT.
Absolutley brilliant Aunty Peb, and the MS punch for tiles is inspired !!!!! well done you.
