Wishing you many merry moments

To lighten the dark days around Christmas this little gnome hung several lanterns around his house. This makes it quite cozy! Julie made this Christmas card with the new Gnome Home.

First cut out all the different die cut elements in coloured card stock - white trees, red house with white trim, white snow using the grass die in the House set, navy blue DL mat for the background. I’ve also used the small branch dies from the tree set to act as sticks holding the lanterns either side of the house.

Stamp and die cut the gnome and several lanterns and colour with alcohol markers.  Cut some of the Swedish Winter red gingham paper to fit behind the windows to look like curtains, fix the window frames and eaves of the house in place, Layer the trees onto the navy DL card base and then fix the house in front . Play around with all the different die cut elements until you are happy with the placement and then stick in place.  Splatter some white paint over the whole scene to look like snow then add some silver glitter in the creases of the trees, window frames, snow etc to give a touch of sparkle.  

Finally stamp the sentiment onto a die cut tag, mount on foam pads, add some twine and fix to the top part of the card for balance.
