Mini Fairy Light Houses by Shary

Hi today it's my turn to show off some inspiration. I've used a fab little file called Mini Fairy Light Houses by Crafty SVG Designs.

These are so easy to make but so effective. Here they are lit up with little electric tea lights.

I've used some heated snow puff to layer onto the windows and roof. For the main part of the roof I embossed them with an embossign folder and I have used some white frantage to make it look like a light layer of snow. The little snowflakes in the window have been cut on my Explore using some white vinyl. They will look really pretty lit up on my window sill in the house.

They are really easy to make but when you buy the file from the Snapdragon Snippets store you also get a tutorial included with your cut file.

I hope you have a go at making these little houses they really are fun to make and you can decorate them how you wish.

Advent Calendar by Valou

Hello everybody! 

 Today, I come to share with you my project for "Snap Dragon Snippets"!

To realize this set, I used the file of "Snap Dragon Snippets", HERE.

All the parts are cut with the machine " Silhouette Studio ".

I used the following papers:

- White Bazzil Cardstock.
- Papers " Winter Collection " and "Spring Collection".
- Blue paper "Action".
- Cardboard of recycling.
- White Bristol.
- Cardstock chestnut.

Any goshawk, I added barriers cut with the " Silhouette Studio ". Then, in front of, I stuck dies-cuts realized with a dies " Noor!Design ", "Border Snowflakes".

Finally, I stuck of the ribbon " Organza Mahogany " and I finished with a small knot.

To the left of the house, I decided to make an extension to realize the garden.

All the bottom is covered with artificial snow in spray.

I realized an ice rink with a die-cut realized with a dies " Noor! Design ", " Round 2 ".

I realized a tree with a file of cut " Silhouette Studio Store". Above, I added a little artificial snow and diverse blue, pink and white pearly pearls to represent Christmas baubles.

I also added a wooden "Treillis" of the shop " HobbyCutz ". Above, I stuck some pearly pearls as well as some flowers: white Poinsettia, blue Poinsettia, white and red Rose ( WOC), white Rose ( WOC), blue Rose " Kaisercraft " and spangled red berries. At the foot of this "Treillis", I stuck a silvery and spangled pine cone, a cloth white rose, a red "Lily" and a spangled red berry.

Then, I added a small glass sled. Above, I stuck a red flower.

For the rest, I added a reindeer cut with "Silhouette Sutdio" and die-cuts "Fir trees".

On the ground, I stuck some white balls spangled in polyester.

I used several rubberstamps " Magnolia Ink ".

I colorized them with the following ink:

- Ink "Distress Tattered Rose" and "Distress Vintage Photo" for the skin.
- Ink "Distress Antique Linen", "Brushed Corduroy" and "Distress Walnut Stain" for hair.
- Ink "Distress Fayded Jeans".
- Ink "Distress Aged Mahogany".
- Ink "Distress Pumice Stone".
- Glitter Stickels Diamond.

On the roof, I added pieces of garland, some artificial snow and a small wooden cock.



On the window of the top, I added a knot realized with a piece of ribbon " Organza Mahogany " and decorated with a white rose (15 mm) ( WOC).

I added a small banner realized with a dies " Noor! Design " on whom I stuck "Rub-On", "Merry Christmas". I inked it to the ink "Distress Walnut Stain".

For the rest, I added various embellishments:

- Spangled and silvery pine cone.

- Spangled red embellishment.

- Wooden embellishment (received in present in a magazine).

- Plastic ax (recycling).

Here we are! I hope that my realization has you more and that it will inspire you.

I thank you for your passage and wish you an excellent day! Bye for now!

Hugs, 

3D Letter "E" Tutorial

Happy THANKSGIVING everyone!
We at Snapdragon Snippets wish you a restful and joyous day with your family and friends.

Debb is sharing another great tutorial. This time is the 3D Box letter E file #28784

Identify the pieces. There will be matching symbols cut into the tabs to help keep the top pieces and the bottom pieces together.

The HEART, DIAMOND, SQUARE, and CIRCLE are the narrower panels and create the top.

(Note: the DOUBLE TRIANGLE, DOUBLE CIRCLE , DOUBLE HEART and DOUBLE RECTANGLE  are the wider pieces and create the bottom. The process is done in reverse, with the letter being upside-down.)

Match the ends and glue together. Continue gluing all the matching pieces.

  

The last piece will connect to the first piece creating a loop and forming the outside of the letter.

Identify the long side of the shape and attach the long side of the E. You can fold at the score lines at this point. 

Fold the tabs inward and create the E shape. Glue the top down to the tabs.

It might be helpful to press on the tabs from the inside.

Attach the decorative panels.

The inside panels are small and you might need tweezers to get them in place. You might also want to add the panels before you attach the top.

The completed letter E.
