Christmas in my town house

Using Sheena card I coloured the background with Aqua pens blending with glycerin, I sprinkled water over the finished background, blotting to create texture. The moon was lifted out using the foe bleaching method and once dry I used the clear overlay sparkle pen on the moon to make it glisten. 
The edge of the card was then blended with black soot distress ink.

From Sheena Douglas's Monkingbird Hill range I die cut the Our house die twice, I cut one house off at the roof and the other die cut off just below the upstairs window. 
I then attached the roof top part to the other die allowing me to create a townhouse.
I used the Aqua pens to colour in the house and placed a silver glitter card behind the windows and door which gave the effect that the house was lit up from within.
The accessories which are the tree and lamp post are from the Mockingbird range also called Fun in the snow, these too were coloured with Aqua pens and gold glitter card was placed behind the lamp making it look like the actual lamp was lit. The hanging Christmas lights along the windows come from the Mockingbird range called Adornments and these were also coloured using Aqua tints but then each bulb was glued and individually covered with various shades of glitter.
The snow affect used on the house, tree, lamp and ground is made using Pebeo sand texture and covered in white glitter.

The Santa and sleigh are part of the Tattered Lace Snow Globe, I used the clear overlay sparkle pen to high light the top of the slay and reindeer to give the look of the moon reflecting on them.

The greeting Believe in Magic is from the Crafter's Companion rubber stamp set Noel. I simple coloured the background to the sentiment the same way as the background to the house and applied Brusho activating with water and them stamped the sentiment with StazOn.

The whole project was then mounted on black card.

Really enjoyed putting this together....
