3 D Garden Shed with Little Critters

3 D Garden Shed
Hi friends sharing a 3 dimensional Garden Shed for my 4th post as Designer Spotlight for Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge  where the theme is "Little Critters"

I made a 3 dimensional garden shed using chipboard and added cute little hedgehogs, butterflies and dragonflies as critters!
Garden Shed with Hedgehogs
I love to make 3 D projects using chipboard  as they are sturdy and durable.I made the  3 D window for my garden by die cutting 3 pieces of chipboard using  the Tim Holtz Window and Pediments dies, layered them atop , applied gesso and gave a nice coating of Prima Texture crackle paste .
3 D Window
Added Graphic 45 Time to Flourish papers behind and around the window to create  a sunny cheerful scene!

I fussy cut some gorgeous flowers from the Graphic 45 papers and also made matching handmade sunflowers [using the Cheery Lynn  sunflower die] .

Since the theme was "Little Critters" I added butterflies, hummingbirds and dragonflies to my garden!

Here is how I made my 3 D Garden shed which is open on the side to house a mini album/ diary/etc[not yet decided what I  should put inside it!!]
3 D Shed Construction
I embossed cream card stock using the Spellbinders Brick folder and added my 3 D chipboard window to the front piece. Used double layers of chipboard to create the roof , base and sidewalls.

When constructing such a 3 D structure it is easier to stick the roof and base first and later add the side wall.

I used card stock and liquid glue to stick the pieces together.

The base and roof of my Garden shed are lined with beautiful papers from Graphic 45 Time to Flourish.
I added a hovering hummingbird on the roof...made it literally hover using acetate!!

I used rusty hinge and wild honey Distress Inks  to create the gorgeous shading for my sunflower and added chunky glitter on the center!

I also made the golden dragonfly fly in midair by suspending it using a thin strip of acetate!

The garden floor has moss and mushrooms!


The picture below shows the open side to slip in your mini album or secret diary!

I used a Graphic 45 chipboard"time to flourish" on the base of my window...such an apt sentiment for this project wont you agree!

And bidding you adieu with the cutest image...an adorable hedgehog from Penny Black's Critters in love stamped and watercolored using Kuretake Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens .

I hope you liked this project.
