A Glowing Christmas at The Paper Shelter

 Hello Crafty Peeps,

We're getting towards the festive time of year, and there's only a few challenges left at The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog!

Today in the UK it is Guy Fawkes/ Bonfire Night, so our optional theme this round is LIGHT MY FIRE, which has lots of room for interpretation.

I have used My Little Christmas Light to create a 3D layered "snow" globe (it does have a bit of snow, LOL). 


I found a snow globe shadow box in Cricut Design Space and did lots of slicing and merging to create my own layers. It was a PITA, but I love how it turned out!


I used a mix of traditional and non-traditional Christmas colours for the image and layers.

The curtain sash is a few images together. I squashed the snowflake shape to give it more of a side-view look. It is only ¼ inch wide, so I'm glad it cut out well!

Here you can better see the layers. I used acetate for the windows, and put the little star behind to look like he is saying "Hello" from outside.


Our challenges are now ANYTHING GOES with an optional theme. Anyone playing the theme will receive DOUBLE ENTRIES towards the weekly prize!!


You can also share your creations over in our Facebook Group.
